This climb from Las Norias up to Las Manchas or San Nicolas is a real slog. With its 4.69 kilometres and an average gradient of 7.3 percent, you can expect a real "ordeal." The pass is brand new asphalt at the start. The entire road was built in record time after the volcanic eruption in 2021 as a new connecting road. The steepest ramps await you here. There are still few plants and trees all around at the moment, everything is very bare and the wind can also affect you here. As soon ... read more

This climb from Las Norias up to Las Manchas or San Nicolas is a real slog. With its 4.69 kilometres and an average gradient of 7.3 percent, you can expect a real "ordeal." The pass is brand new asphalt at the start. The entire road was built in record time after the volcanic eruption in 2021 as a new connecting road. The steepest ramps await you here. There are still few plants and trees all around at the moment, everything is very bare and the wind can also affect you here.
As soon as you reach the old section of road, it becomes more level again. Beautiful young palm trees have been planted to the left and right of the road. Due to the old section of the climb, the data on the pass does not necessarily show how hard it really is at the start.
This pass is an important link between the two already completed lava roads back to the LP-2, which is currently still buried by lava, so if you are travelling from Los Llanos or Tazacorte towards the south of the island, there is currently no way around this climb.

Dieser Anstieg von Las Norias hinauf nach Las Manchas bzw. San Nicolas ist ein echtes Brett. Mit seinen 4,69 Kilometern und den 7,3 Prozent im Schnitt erwartet euch eine echte "Quälerei." Der Pass ist zu Beginn nagelneu Asphaltiert. Die gesamte Straße wurde in Rekordzeit nach dem Vulkanausbruch 2021 als neue Verbindungsstraße hergestellt. Hier warten auch die steilsten Rampen auf euch. Rundherum gibt es im Moment noch wenig Pflanzen und Bäume, alles ist sehr kahl und der Wind kann euch hier auch beeinflussen.
Sobald ihr dann auf den alten Straßenabschnitt stoßt, wird es wieder ebener. Links und rechts der Straße sind schöne junge Palmen angepflanzt. Durch den alten Abschnitt des Anstieges sieht man aus den Daten des Passes nicht unbedingt wie hart er zu Beginn wirklich ist.
Dieser Pass ist eine wichtige Verbindung der beiden bereits fertiggestellten Lavastraßen zurück zur aktuell immer noch von der Lava verschütteten LP-2. Wenn ihr also von Los Llanos oder Tazacorte kommend in Richtung Süden der Insel fahren möchtet, führt im Moment kein Weg an diesem Anstieg vorbei.
