The 'Lacets de Montvernier' of the Asturias is also called. The comparison is not quite right. This admittedly short climb is many times more difficult. On a narrow and moderately asphalted goat path you will cycle your way up and with an average incline of almost 12％ to a desolate place, where you imagine yourself to be alone in the world. Spectacular and unforgettable!... read more

Absolutely drive around for it. The gorge before it is already narrow and beautiful to ride. Then at the café take a narrow road to the right. You follow a path under a rock face where there may still be a stone. The raging stream next to the road adds to the atmosphere of the area. Then turn right at the little bridge and the fun can really begin. Hairpin bends into infinity that you have to negotiate to get to the top, gruesomely steep! In the first part, the road surface is pretty bad, but after about 7 bends it gets better. Really great views at the top! Descend leisurely as the road dead-ends.

Absoluut voor om rijden. De kloof ervoor is al smal en mooi om te rijden. Dan bij het café een smal weggetje rechtsaf nemen (als je vanaf het noorden komt uiteraard, anders links). Je volgt een pad onder een rotswand waar nog wel eens een steen kan liggen. De woeste beek naast de weg geeft extra sfeer aan de omgeving. Dan rechts bij het bruggetje en de pret kan echt beginnen. Haarspeldbochten tot in de oneindigheid die je moet bedwingen om boven te komen, gruwelijk steil! In het eerste deel is het wegdek best slecht, maar na een bocht of 7 wordt het beter. Echt een geweldig uitzicht boven! Daal ontspannen af want de weg loopt dood.

De 'Lacets de Montvernier' van de Asturias wordt deze ook wel genoemd. De vergelijking klopt niet helemaal. Deze weliswaar korte klim is vele malen lastiger. Op een smal en matig geasfalteerd geitenpad baan je je weg naar boven en fiets je met een gemiddelde stijging van bijna 12％ naar een desolaat plekje, waar je je alleen op de wereld waant. Spectaculair en onvergetelijk!
