If you are staying in Valencia, this climb is hey not worth it. The road to it is long, straight, and boring. The climb an sich is fun, but offers no shade. Also, the end of the climb is not accessible, so the climb is effectively 2km.... read more

Als je in Valencia verblijft is deze klim hey niet waard. De weg ernaartoe is lang, recht, en saai. De klim an sich is leuk, maar biedt geen schaduw. Ook is het einde van de klim niet bereikbaar, dus de klim is effectief 2km.

Final climb of one of the stages of the Vuelta 2021. Quite steep. The beauty of this climb is that the mountain turns into the sea. Great views so. You must, once up, the same way back.

Slotklim van één van de etappes van de Vuelta 2021. Nogal steil. Het mooie van deze klim is dat de berg overgaat in de zee. Geweldig uitzicht dus. Je moet, eenmaal boven, wel dezelfde weg terug.
