Good climb, shaded by trees, nice views with a spectacular dam. The bad thing is the asphalt that is dusty and they cover the holes with gravel + tar that until everything sticks well makes the descent a danger, it is urgent that they fix it as it should be. The views from the top are beautiful.... read more

Buena subida, con sombra por los árboles, bonitas vistas con una presa espectacular. Lo malo es el asfalto que está hecho polvo y tapan los agujeros con grava+alquitrán que hasta que se pega bien todo hace que la bajada sea un peligro, urge que lo arreglen como debe ser. Las vistas desde la cima preciosas.
