The road is in good condition and traffic is very low, ideal for enjoying the scenery. As you climb, spectacular views open out over the Gulf of Roses, Cap de Creus and, on clear days, as far as the Pyrenees.

Subida corta pero intensa, de unos 7 km y 400 m de desnivel, con pendientes medias del 6-7% y rampas que superan el 10%. La carretera está en buen estado y el tráfico es muy bajo, ideal para disfrutar del paisaje.

A medida que se asciende, se abren vistas espectaculares al Golfo de Roses, el Cap de Creus y, en días claros, hasta los Pirineos. El monasterio al final de la subida da un cierre perfecto a esta ascensión tan especial.

Ideal para ciclistas que buscan un reto moderado con recompensa visual.

Lovely quiet scenic climb. Amongst the forests. Fine tarmac and hardly any traffic. You can use the road from left to right like a true Colombian climber. The descent to El Post de la Selva is breathtaking but tough on the brakes. Enjoy.

Heerlijk rustige mooi lopende klim. Tussen de bossen. Prima asfalt en nauwelijks verkeer. Je kan als een echte Colombiaanse klimmer van links naar rechts de weg gebruiken. De afdaling naar El Post de la Selva is adembenemend maar zwaar voor de remmen. Genieten.
