No need to detour for it.... Views from other climbs in the region much nicer. You cycle against mountainside so little to see. Busy thoroughfare between villages.... read more

Je hoeft er niet voor om te rijden…. Uitzichten van andere beklimmingen in de regio veel mooier. Je fietst tegen bergwand aan dus weinig te zien. Drukke verkeersader tussen de dorpen.

Short steady climb. Fun to do, but definitely not an obligation. Monday morning there was a fair amount of traffic, but not annoying.

Korte gelijkmatige klim. Leuk om te doen, maar zeker niet een verplichting. Maandagochtend was er redelijk wat verkeer, maar niet hinderlijk.

Not a bad climb at all with some pretty tough sections. Also the hairpin is a nice steep thing. Unfortunately the climb is on a busy main road. The Spaniards give you all the space you need, but the traffic makes it less fun. Otherwise fine if it happens to fit nicely into your route.

Helemaal geen verkeerde klim met soms nog best pittige stukjes. Ook de haarspeld is een lekker steil ding. De klim loopt helaas over een vrij drukke doorgaande weg. De Spanjaarden geven je alle ruimte, maar het verkeer maakt het minder leuk. Verder prima als ie toevallig net mooi in je route past.
