It is a port with many aspects, both from the north (Cerdaña region) and from the south (Ripollés region). They are the following:
- North slope from Alp: passing through Masella and Molina
- North slope from Das: also passing through Masella and Molina
- North slope from Alp: passing through La Molina
- North slope from Queixans: it is the climb to the Toses pass, extending 7 km more to the Coll de la Creueta
- South slope from La Pobla de Lillet: passing through Les Fonts del Llobregat and Castellar de N'Hug
- South slope from Gombrèn: passing through the Mataplana castle and joining the previous slope in Castellar de N'Hug.
The last two slopes are the most recommended for hardness and beauty.
All alternatives are perfectly paved and traffic is non-existent except on weekends in July and August.
To highlight the wind in the final kilometers of all slopes, which usually blows from the head and/or in favor depending on the stretch of road.
