The desierto de las palmas is a climb that should be on every climber's bucket list. What a beautiful climb this is. Plenty of views and climbing on the blackest and smoothest road of your career. At every kilometre there is a sign with the gradient for the next kilometre. There is little traffic, but now and then some competition from a fast Spanish fellow-cyclist. The climb is not very long and steep, but if you go for it, you can have a lot of fun. Nature is beautiful, do this!

De desierto de las palmas is een klim die op de bucketlist van iedere klimmer mag. Wát een mooie klim is deze zeg. Uitzichten te over en klimmen op het meest zwarte en gladde wegdek uit je carrière. Op elke kilometer staat een bordje met het stijgingspercentage voor de komende kilometer. Verkeer is er weinig, wél af en toe wat competitie van een pittig snelle Spaanse mede-fietser. De klim is niet enorm lang en steil, maar als je er stevig tegenaan knalt kan je toch goed stuk gaan. De natuur is prachtig, doen deze!
