Punchy climb with a bit of everything. There’s a decent stretch of “town cobbles” near the base (smooth & evenly set, but still a bit sapping). There’s a nice section of switchbacks and some steep sections, especially after the turn left on the road that passes below the summit to go up to the chapel. You then need to follow the rougher cobbles to the top (if you’re on a gravel bike there are great trails on the white gravel roads that service the turbines).... read more

Good climb from Cerdal, with a 1km or less cobblestone straight that makes it even more epic... At the top there is a chapel, a large car park and tables. Paragliding area, too.

Buena subida desde Cerdal, con una recta de 1km o menos de adoquín que la hacen más épica... Arriba hay una capilla, amplio aparcamiento y mesas. Zona de parapente, también.
