5.0 by LaMamolaThis is an automatic translation, the original language is: Spanish.This is a new and the toughest route up to Haza del Lino. It has about 500 meters of compacted dirt before reaching the concrete section, which is about 2.4 km long and extremely tough. Once you’ve passed this section, the challenge continues, but on brand-new asphalt. When you reach the summit, you’re 2 km from the town of Polopos.

This is a new and the toughest route up to Haza del Lino. It has about 500 meters of compacted dirt before reaching the concrete section, which is about 2.4 km long and extremely tough. Once you’ve passed this section, the challenge continues, but on brand-new asphalt. When you reach the summit, you’re 2 km from the town of Polopos. Instead of descending on the same side, I recommend continuing for another 1.5 km on the dirt road until the concrete reappears; where you’ll have the option to go around the town and exit onto the road that climbs from Castillo de Baños (La Guapa) to Haza del Lino. You can also ride through the town and fill up on water at the fountain in the town square; from there, it’s about 7.6 km at a 6.5% grade to the summit of Haza del Lino—arguably one of the toughest mountain passes in Spain and Europe.
Vertiente nueva y la mas dura para subir al Haza del Lino, tiene unos 500 metros de tierra compactada antes de iniciar el tramo de cemento que tiene unos 2.4 km y que es durisimo, una vez pasado este tramo sigue la dureza, pero con un asfalto totalmente nuevo. Cuando coronas, estas a 2 km de la poblacion de Polopos, te recomiendo en vez de bajar por el mismo lado seguir 1.5 km de nuevo de tierra hasta que vuelve aparecer el cemento, alli tienes la opcion de rodear el pueblo y salir a la carretera que sube desde Castillo de Baños (La Guapa) al Haza del Lino. Tambien puedes cruzar el pueblo y llenar agua en la fuente de la plaza del pueblo, desde alli te quedaran unos 7.6 km al 6.5％ hasta la cima del Haza del Lino, Dicho asi uno de los puertos mas duros de España y Europa.
