Classic Asturian port with winding and narrow roads among the typical greenery of northern Spain. It has traditionally been included in La Vuelta a España as a prelude to the mythical Angliru, but in itself it is a demanding pass for the average cyclist with its ramps of up to 7% going up from Riosa and 12% from Pola de Lena.

Small but tough port. Like everyone in the area. Easy to chain with the Anglirú
