Very nice climb to the top. Drove it up on 4 May. Little traffic. Road surface is very variable. First kilometres are top. Then steep section starts with several km in double digits. 5 km before the end eir the road surface gets worse and worse. Lots of cracks and potholes. But you can still ride up well also because you are not going so fast anyway. In the descent, keep your eyes open and brake hard and you'll be fine. Beautiful scenery and beautiful views. Really relaxed there myself.
Was on holiday in Platja D'Aro and drove to Olot by car. I first drove to the left up the Collada de Sentigosa on N260a and GI-521 and then via Sant Joan de les Abadesses over the coll de Burgarès (Pla d' en Plata) via the GIV-5211 before driving up the Vallter2000. After the descent at Sant Pau de Segúries, you can turn left off the C-38 onto the C-153a and ride through another beautiful natural area until you come out on the N-260 again. Very nice round
Heel mooie klim naar de top. Reed hem op 4 mei omhoog. Weinig verkeer. Wegdek is heel wisselend. Eerste kilometers zijn top. Dan begint het steile stuk met een aantal km in de dubbele cijfers. 5 km voor het rind eirdt het wegdek steeds slechter. Veel scheuren en putten. Maar je kan nog steeds goed omhoog rijden ook omdat je toch niet zo hard gaat. In de afdaling goed op blijven letten en flink remmen dan is het prima te doen. Prachtige omgeving en mooie vergezichten. Kwam er zelf echt tot rust.
Was op vakantie in Platja D'Aro en met de auto naar Olot gereden. Ik reed eerst naar links de Collada de Sentigosa op N260a en GI-521 en daarna via Sant Joan de les Abadesses de coll de Burgarès (Pla d' en Plata) over via de GIV-5211 voordat ik de Vallter2000 opreed. Na de afdaling bij Sant Pau de Segúries kun je linksaf slaan van de C-38 af naar de C-153a en rijd je nog door een mooi natuurgebied totdat je weer uitkomt op de N-260. Erg mooi rondje
