Steady climb in a privileged setting. It is important not to push hard at the start because from Lles de Cerdanya onwards there are moderately steep ramps. Ideal for a drink at the end (there is a refuge).... read more

Subida constante en un entorno privilegiado. Importante no apretar al inicio porque a partir de Lles de Cerdanya hay rampas con pendiente moderada. Ideal para tomar algo al final (hay un refugio)
