Carried out on 07 July in the afternoon. It was a very hot 43°C. Not necessarily steep roads, but the heat really dampened things down. A beautiful climb!... read more

The first half of this climb to the Puerto de Navacerrada along Navacerrada is busy in car traffic, but less crowded than if you start from Collado Villalba. The second part must be done once, although climbs to the Puerto de Navacerrada from the other side of the Sierra (La Granja or Rascafría) are much quieter.

De eerst helft van deze beklimming naar de Puerto de Navacerrada langs Navacerrada is druk in autoverkeer, maar minder druk dan wanneer je vertrekt uit Collado Villalba. Het tweede deel moet je eens gedaan hebben, al zijn beklimmingen naar de Puerto de Navacerrada vanaf de andere kant van de Sierra (La Granja of Rascafría) veel rustiger.
