This is an explosive climb that links Santiago de Compostela with neighbouring Milladoiro. It is perhaps the best option for linking both urban centres through territory with little traffic. It runs partially along the last kilometres of the Portuguese Way of St. James, although in the last stretch of the ascent it takes a small detour to add to its difficulty. It consists of three distinct parts: the first hard section, from the Vidán neighbourhood to A Rocha Vella; the second section that... read more

This is an explosive climb that links Santiago de Compostela with neighbouring Milladoiro. It is perhaps the best option for linking both urban centres through territory with little traffic.
It runs partially along the last kilometres of the Portuguese Way of St. James, although in the last stretch of the ascent it takes a small detour to add to its difficulty.

It consists of three distinct parts: the first hard section, from the Vidán neighbourhood to A Rocha Vella; the second section that runs along the central street of this small village; and the third and last section, taking a very tight detour to the right, and which leads us to face the very hard last few kilometres, crossing a bridge that crosses the motorway to Noia, and ending at the Milladoiro electricity station.

Se trata de una subida explosiva que une Santiago de Compostela con la vecina Milladoiro. Es quizás la mejor opción para unir ambos núcleos urbanos por territorio con poco tráfico.
Transcurre parcialmente por los últimos kilómetros del Camino de Santiago Portugués, aunque en el último tramo de la ascensión toma un pequeño desvío para añadirle más dureza.

Consta de tres partes bien diferenciadas: el primer tramo duro, desde el barrio de Vidán hasta A Rocha Vella; el segundo tramo que discurre por la calle central de esta pequeña aldea; y el tercer y último tramo, tomando un desvío muy cerrado a mano derecha, y que nos lleva a afrontar las durísimas últimas cuestras, atravesando un puente que atraviesa la autopista hacia Noia, y finalizando en la estación eléctrica de Milladoiro.
