The climb is similar in terms of gradients, except for a steeper initial ramp that is longer rather than steeper.
It is a good way to connect the valleys of Jerte and Ambroz and thus make a circular route.
Be careful with the descent on the other side because it has several steep slopes.

Subida cómo en cuanto a desniveles, salvo una rampa inicial más fuerte y que es más larga que empinada.
Viene bien para conectar los valles del Jerte y el Ambroz y hacer así una ruta circular.
Cuidado con la bajada en el otro lado porque tiene varios repechos.
