The climb should actually be divided into 2 parts. The first from Cain to Posada de Valderon follows a small natural road. Partly narrow and partly very steep - the steepest section is 17% over a length of 700m. The second section from Posada to the summit follows a normal country road with a good average of around 5%. Very cool to ride. Both parts are marvellous with great panoramas but the first one is awesome!... read more

Den Anstieg müsste man eigentlich in 2. Teile teilen. Der erste von Cain nach Posada de Valderon folgt einer kleinen Naturstraße. Teilweise eng und teilweise sehr steil - das steilste Stück ist 17% über eine Länge von 700m. Das 2 Stück von Posada zum Gipfel folgt auf der normalen Landstraße mit einem gut befahrbaren Schnitt von ca 5%. Sehr cool zu fahren.

Beide Teile sind herrlich mit tollem Panoramen aber der erste ist ein Hammer!
