Very nice side of the climb to Cruz Verde where you first climb out of Robledo and then follow the mountain ridge with beautiful mountain views looking to the right. All in all, it is quiet on this highway.... read more

Very nice side of the climb to Cruz Verde where you first climb out of Robledo and then follow the mountain ridge with beautiful mountain views looking to the right. All in all, it is quiet on this highway.

Zeer mooie kant van de beklimming naar Cruz Verde waarbij je eerst Robledo uit klimt en vervolgens de bergrand volgt met rechts kijkend mooie berguitzichten. Het is al bij al rustig op deze autobaan.

Feels like a long grind, but only because it tends to come towards the end of a long loop.
