This summit is dedicated to the Asturian cyclist Chechu Rubiera because he was the one who promoted its inclusion in the route of the Tour of Spain. For this reason it is signposted along the ascent and at the summit itself, although the measurements shown are quite far from reality on the last stretch.
The first 2-kilometre section, with ramps of between 10-12％, and an average gradient of 9.6％ for the first and 8.8％ for the second, is the hardest, although the final section is also demanding, However, the latter does not reach the level indicated on the sign at the last kilometre, as it does not reach the maximum 14％ indicated - it is 10％ - nor the 11％ average gradient announced - it is 9.2％.
It is a constant gradient ascent that does not go below 7.3％ on average per kilometre, and half of the kilometres are around 9％ on average. But at kilometre 7 the signposting fails again, announcing a maximum gradient of an exaggerated 16％ when what is actually reached is 12％, one of the kilometres with the lowest average, 7.3％.
What makes this pass - a former mining operation - unique is its lack of rests, its exuberant beauty as we enter the wooded area, the views from the top and the fact that it is a road with hardly any motor vehicle traffic.
Esta cima está dedicada al ciclista asturiano Chechu Rubiera porque fue quien promovió que fuera incluida en el trazado de la Vuelta a España. Por ello aparece señalizada a lo largo de la ascensión y en la propia cima, aunque las mediciones que muestran están bastante lejos de la realidad en el último tramo.
El primer tramo de 2 kilómetros, con unas rampas entre 10-12％, y una pendiente media del 9,6％ para el primero y 8,8％ para el segundo, es el más duro, aunque el tramo final también es exigente, pero este último no llega a lo señalizado en el cartel del último kilómetro ya que no se alcanza el 14％ máximo indicado —se llega puntualmente al 10％— ni el 11％ de pendiente media que nos anuncia —es un 9,2％—.
Es una ascensión de pendiente constante que no baja del 7,3％ de media por kilómetro y la mitad de los kilómetros rondan, arriba y abajo, el 9％ de media. Pero en el kilómetro 7 la señalización vuelve a fallar anunciando una pendiente máxima de un exagerado 16％ cuando lo que se alcanza es un 12％, siendo uno de los kilómetros de menor media, un 7,3％.
Lo que hace de este puerto —antigua explotación minera— singular es que carece de descansos, su exhuberante belleza al internarnos en la zona boscosa, las vistas desde la cima y ser una carretera sin apenás tránsito de vehículos a motor.
