The profile doesn't accurately reflect what you'll encounter along the way in terms of climbing. In fact, you'll climb the Puerto d'El Collao (also known as Alto de Teix) with its summit between Relleu and Torremanzanas, which has long stretches of 14% ascent. After a short descent to Torremanzanas, the last 5 kilometres of the Puerto de Benifallim follows, a runner compared to the Alto de Teix. It is a beautiful area with very little traffic on the roads.... read more

Of course, coming from Torrematanzas (the opposite direction), you also get a serious climb of more than 2km until you reach the summit of "el Collao" at 890 metres.

Komend vanuit Torrematanzas (de tegenovergestelde richting) krijg je natuurlijk ook nog een serieuze klim voor de kiezen van meer dan 2km tot je bij de top van “el Collao” uitkomt op 890 meter hoogte.

Two cols for the price of one ! The official foot may be in Relleu, but if you have left from the coast (Benidorm or Vilajoyosa), you have already processed quite a few altimeters in Relleu. You take CV 782 towards Torremanzanas. The climb to the first way station Puerto d'El Collao is an abomination: extremely irregular with sometimes very steep sections (my Garmin gave 17% at one point), alternated by another sharp descent that makes you lose the altitude metres you just gained... Once you reach the first intermediate stop, a short descent follows until Torremanzanas, where you take the CV780 on the right. From there, you climb another 5 kilometres or so at a very steady gradient.

Twee cols voor de prijs van één ! De officiële voet mag dan misschien in Relleu liggen, maar als je vanaf de kust (Benidorm of Vilajoyosa) vertrokken bent, heb je in Relleu al flink wat hoogtemeters verwerkt. Je neemt de CV 782 richting Torremanzanas. De klim naar het eerste tussenstation Puerto d'El Collao is een verschrikking: bijzonder onregelmatig met soms héél steile stukken (mijn Garmin gaf op een gegeven ogenblik 17%), afgewisseld met weer een scherpe afdaling waardoor je de net verworven hoogtemeters weer verliest... Eens de eerste tussentop bereikt volgt een korte afdaling tot Torremanzanas, waar je rechts de CV780 neemt. Vanaf daar klim je nog een 5-tal kilometer aan een erg gelijkmatig stijgingspercentage.

Het profiel geeft niet goed weer wat je onderweg tegenkomt qua klimmen. In feite beklim je de Puerto d'El Collao (ook bekend als Alto de Teix) met de top tussen Relleu en Torremanzanas, die lange stukken van 14% stijging kent. Na een korte afdaling naar Torremanzanas, volgt de laatste 5 kilometers van de Puerto de Benifallim, een loper vergeleken met de Alto de Teix. Het is een schitterend gebied met erg weinig verkeer op de wegen.
