Beautiful but very erratic climb and a must for every Spaniard in the area. The first part of the climb is relatively quiet and the road is quite wide, especially by local standards. After the even descent comes the erratic part with percentages of climb well over 20％ alternating with some lighter parts but constantly heavy mainly due to the changing gradients. Here, the road surface is narrow and also impaired by work and agricultural vehicles. The region is phenomenally beautiful and this cl... read more

Beautiful but very erratic climb and a must for every Spaniard in the area. The first part of the climb is relatively quiet and the road is quite wide, especially by local standards. After the even descent comes the erratic part with percentages of climb well over 20％ alternating with some lighter parts but constantly heavy mainly due to the changing gradients. Here, the road surface is narrow and also impaired by work and agricultural vehicles. The region is phenomenally beautiful and this climb is a must if you are in the area.

Mooie maar zeer grillige klim en een must bij elke Spanjaard in de buurt. Het eerste deel is relatief rustig omhooglopend en hier is de weg wel tamelijk breed , zeker naar de normen in de streek., wel af en toe een auto. Na de zelfs afdaling komt het grillige deel met stijgingspercentages ruim boven de 20％ afgewisseld met wat lichter lopende stukken maar constant zwaar vooral door de wisselende stijgingspercentages. Hier is het wegdek smal en ook minder goed door de werk en landbouwvoertuigen. De streek is fenomenaal mooi en deze klim is een must als je in de buurt bent.
