I came from the Coll de la Creueta and only did the last 3.8 km. Of those, 1.5 km are steep and about 10%. The start is about 8 % and the last part is not too bad again, descends a bit and is flat until the car park, after which you can continue cycling to the courtyard of Montgrony. If you want to see the abbey, you have to leave the bike there and go up another considerable stretch of stairs and then a path. The flat part is down a steep cliff with lots of climbing.

I came from the Coll de la Creueta and only did the last 3.8 km. Of those, 1.5 km are steep and about 10%. The start is about 8 % and the last part is not too bad again, descends a bit and is flat until the car park, after which you can continue cycling to the courtyard of Montgrony. If you want to see the abbey, you have to leave the bike there and go up another considerable stretch of stairs and then a path. The flat part is down a steep cliff with lots of climbing. Here the road is also very bad, otherwise it's reasonable. Quiet road, and the abbey, green mountains and rock face make a great backdrop for this climb.

Ik kwam van de Coll de la Creueta en heb alleen de laatste 3.8 km gedaan. Daarvan zijn 1.5 km steil en zo'n 10%. Het begin is zo'n 8 % en het laatste stuk valt weer mee, daalt wat af en is vlak tot de parkeerplaats, waarna je nog naar de binnenplaats van Montgrony kunt doorfietsen. Als je de abdij wilt zien moet je de fiets daar achterlaten en nog een behoorlijk stuk een trap omhoog en daarna een pad. Het vlakke stuk is onderlangs een steile rotswand waar veel geklommen wordt. Hier is de weg ook erg slecht, voor de rest is het redelijk. Rustige weg, en de abdij, de groene bergen en de rotswand vormen een geweldig decor voor deze klim.
