Nice long climb with irregular but pleasant gradients. The climb actually starts at La Rabita on the wide road with lots of traffic to Albunol. After Albunol the traffic stops and you can enjoy the ride. You crawl up out of one of the valleys with an often dry river. After about six miles at 700 meters altitude a beautiful view of the sea reveals itself. A little later you pass the turnoff to the village of Sorvilan, known by the locals for its wines. The climb has flattened out, but will by the time you approach the exit Polopos slope again, but it is no longer really steep. The top is indicated on the map at the crossroads, but the climb continues slightly towards Rubite.

Some tips:
1) Be aware that it can get hot here in the summer. There are no water points from Albunol, but on the top'top' at the crossroads is a terrace.
2) The descent towards La Guapa is really tricky and especially the last part which can cost you a large part of your brake pads. I would turn right at the crossroads and head for Cadiar and then turn right again at the Albondon exit. There you have a wide road on which you can drop down like a brick.

Mooie lange klim tegen onregelmatige, maar aangename stijgingspercentages. De klim begint eigenlijk al bij La Rabita over de brede weg met veel verkeer naar Albunol. Na Albunol stopt de drukte en is het genieten geblazen. Je kruipt uit een van de valleien met een vaak droogstaand riviertje omhoog. Na een kilometer of zes op 700 meter hoogte openbaart zich een prachtig uitzicht over de zee. Even later passeer je de afslag naar het dorpje Sorvilan dat bij de locals bekend staat om de wijnen. De klim is dan inmiddels wat afgevlakt, maar zal tegen de tijd je de afslag Polopos nadert weer wat hellen, maar het wordt nergens meer echt steil. De top is op het kaartje aangegeven bij de driesprong, maar de klim loopt nog iets door richting Rubite.

Paar tips:
1) Let op dat het hier warm kan worden in de zomer. Er zijn geen waterpunten vanaf Albunol, maar op de 'top' bij de driesprong zit een terrasje.
2) De afdaling richting La Guapa is echt tricky en zeker het laatste stuk wat je een groot deel van je remblokken kan kosten. Ik zou op de driesprong rechtsafslaan en richting Cadiar en dan bij de afslag Albondon weer rechtsafslaan. Daar heb je een brede weg waarop je je als een baksteen naar beneden kunt laten vallen.
