The Alto de la Camparona is located at 1,066 meters above sea level. It is worth going up and observing the spectacular views that open up to us from the mountains of León. A good time to take a break and enjoy the panorama before continuing with our route.

Mountain biking

This mountain pass has been used as the final stage in several editions of the Vuelta, and is notable for its toughness in the final part, with very steep slopes that have tested many cyclists. The steep gradients in the final kilometres, which in some sections reach more than 20%, make La Camparona a feared and decisive mountain pass in the race.
