The climb before Zigguramundi isn't particularly difficult, especially compared to what comes afterwards. There is a lot of road in the village and you can make a mistake, but there is a good section with grooved concrete for the snow, which can be very pleasant on the descent. All in all, it's easier than the map suggests, at least in terms of feel.... read more

La montée avant Zigguramundi n’est pas spécialement difficile, surtout comparé à ce qui arrive après. Il y a beaucoup de route dans le village et on peut se tromper, mais il y a une bonne partie avec du béton rainuré pour la neige, très peut agréable en descente. C’est somme toute plus facile que prévu par la carte, en ressentir du moins.

The first part is much more irregular than the pass from Leorlas.
Apart from that, there are no notable differences, as the route is the same from Zugarramurdi onwards.

Première partie bien plus irrégulière que ce même col depuis Leorlas.
A part ça, aucune différence de notable à signaler, puisque la route est la même à partir de Zugarramurdi.
