The Burgos slope from Barbadillo del Pez is an 11-kilometre climb with gradients of up to 11%. The narrow, undivided road runs through the mainly pine forest mass. It is an ideal mountain pass for those who want to lose themselves on roads practically abandoned by cars and enjoy cycling in its purest form.

It's always a great moment - full of exhaustion and happiness at the same time - when you reach a pass. This is 1,400 meters high!

The railway crossed this port through a tunnel. When making the greenway, the original route was not recovered, so the arrival and departure of the port are two very steep slopes. Most panniers make them by pushing the bike.
