This was the first real climb I have done. I started in Sitges and took Costes del Garraf to the climb. That was a fantastic route by the water with some climbs. When I started this climb I was in the lowest gear right away. It was a fantastic beautiful route up but very hot. After 1.5 km was the hardest part with over 20％ over a longer period. In the middle of the climb there is some flatter road, still 6％ but it feels flat after the steep part. A couple hundred meters after you can see another wall of 20％. After you turn right away from the main road you need to get off your bike and walk around a gate. The last 100 meters is really hard with percentage of nearly 20％. At the top there is fantastic views over the see and all the surrounding areas.
