This beautiful climb in the Cantabrian mountains is a real must. In the first 2.5 km there is even a short bend with a 20％ % incline, luckily it is only a short bend. The last km are also very hard with a short section of 18％ . The climb is often shrouded in fog and was several times a decisive... read more

This beautiful climb in the Cantabrian mountains is a real must. In the first 2.5 km there is even a short bend with a 20％ % incline, luckily it is only a short bend. The last km are also very hard with a short section of 18％ . The climb is often shrouded in fog and was several times a decisive stage in the Tour of Spain, for example in 2012 when Joaquim Rodriguez fought a legendary battle with Chris Froome who finished 2nd and Valverde and Contador 3rd and 4th. So a climb for the real climbers. The climb is mainly in an open area and the road surface is very good.
