I rode both sides of this climb as part of a big climbing day (alto de Machucos and the Puerto de Sía) and whilst this is a relatively easy climb in comparison, it's steady, good tarmac, low traffic and very scenic - views of the limestone escarpments that dominate this area. The cafe in Arredondas (restaurante casanova) is a lifesaver, with plenty of food pinchos options, good coffee and friendly service 👍👍
