Great climb with beautiful views. If you get to the top and are not tired yet, you can still do the goat trail for dessert! Lungs out of your body and you barely fall backwards! This climb is perfect to combine with Coll de Bernia.

Geweldige klim met prachtige vergezichten. Als je boven aan het restaurant bent en je bent nog niet moe dan kun je nog het geitenpad als toetje doen! Longen uit je lijf en je valt net niet achterover! Deze klim is perfect te combineren met Coll de Bernia.

This is a must do climb if you are in Calpe. You will typically see numerous pros going up and down this climb. Car traffic is typically pretty light but there is still traffic. It can get quite bus with bike traffic during peak season. Road surface is very good. Great views at the top.
