Beautiful climb with nice views. This climb goes to the same point as the Alto del 14％, but runs on a much quieter road. The climb is never really steep and is good for pedalling up. On this climb you'll also meet a lot of locals who often go up fast (at least for me). The road surface of the climb is good, the traffic I found quite quiet. The climb is steady and varies a bit between 5 and 6 percent. If you want to go into the interior of Cordoba, this climb is a good and nice start.... read more

Prachtige klim met mooie uitzichten. Deze klim gaat naar hetzelfde punt als de Alto del 14％, maar loopt over een veel rustiger weg. De klim is nooit echt steil en leent zich goed om lekker naar boven te stoempen. Op deze klim kom je ook veel locals tegen die vaak hard omhoog gaan (voor mij althans).
Het wegdek van de klim is goed, het verkeer vond ik vrij rustig. De klim is regelmatig en varieert een beetje rond de 5 en 6 procent. Als je het binnenland bij Córdoba in wil gaan, is deze klim een goede en mooie start.
