A fun climb divided into 3 separate climbs. You really start almost from the water, at the beach in Candelaria the story starts. Beautiful quiet roads, very nice views a good overview of where you are riding to. The climb itself is not too hard and definitely doable for everyone. I definitely recommend this climb to everyone!... read more

A fun climb divided into 3 separate climbs. You really start almost from the water, at the beach in Candelaria the story starts. Beautiful quiet roads, very nice views a good overview of where you are riding to. The climb itself is not too hard and definitely doable for everyone. I definitely recommend this climb to everyone!

Een leuke klim die verdeeld is 3 aparte klimmetjes. Je begint echt bijna vanuit het water, aan het strand in Candelaria start het verhaal. Prachtige rustige wegen, zeer mooie uitzichten een goed overzicht op waar je naar toe rijd. De klim zelf is niet al te zwaar en zeker goed te doen voor iedereen. Ik raad deze klim zeker iedereen aan!
