This has been on my to-do list for a while. Loved it! Yes, the upper section is rough in places and scattered with gravel, but it’s just so ridiculously steep that it holds a unique appeal to try it. You know how crazy a climb is when you consider 14% sections to offer respite! Up to El Jaral is smooth tarmac; above that, choose a careful line to avoid the worst of the loose grit.

This climb is only 2.5 kilometres long but very steep, the hardest is saved for last. Fun to do but make sure your resistance is light enough. The views aren't bad either, you can see La Gomera the island next to Tenerife.

Deze klim is maar 2.5 kilometer lang maar erg steil, het zwaarste wordt bewaard voor het laatst. Leuk om te doen maar zorg er voor dat je verzet licht genoeg is. Het uitzicht is ook niet verkeerd, je kan La Gomera het eiland naast Tenerife zien liggen.
