This is the lightest variant of the ascent to Pico Sacro, although it should not be misleading because, as can be seen in the profile, the difficulty increases progressively until the explosive final stretch. Without a doubt, it is worth the climb to reach one of the most beautiful peaks in the surroundings of Santiago de Compostela. Good tarmac all the way up and little traffic.... read more

Es la variante más ligera de ascenso al Pico Sacro, aunque no debe llegar a engaño porque, como se puede apreciar en el perfil, la dureza aumenta progresivamente hasta la explosiva recta final. Sin duda, merece la pena la ascensión por alcanzar una de las cimas más hermosas del entorno de Santiago de Compostela. Buen asfalto en todo el ascenso y escaso tráfico.
