Tips

This climb from Las Norias up to Las Manchas or San Nicolas is a real challenge. With its 4.69 kilometers and 7.3 percent average, you can expect a real “torture.” The pass is brand new asphalted at the beginning. The entire road was built as a new connection road in record time after the volcanic eruption in 2021. The steepest ramps are waiting for you here. There are few plants and trees around at the moment, everything is very bare and the wind can also affect you here.

As soon as you come across the old section of road, it becomes level again. Beautiful young palm trees are planted on the left and right of the street. Due to the old section of the climb, you don't necessarily see from the pass data how hard it really is at the beginning.

This pass is an important connection of the two already completed lava roads back to LP-2, which is currently still buried by the lava. So if you want to drive towards the south of the island from Los Llanos or Tazacorte, there is currently no way around this climb.
