    Tips

    June 7, 2023

    The climb.
    Stands for Estrada Nacional N338, somewhere around km 14 and km 21.
    Between the roundabout after Loriga, you turn right and starts the party.
    Why it's so difficult?
    1-Always VERY STEEP: consider 12%-14% climbing. (That means riding 1 km you climb more than 100m vertical).
    2-Always VERY EXPOSED to elements: due to the West-North-West location, you can't hide from the strongest winds, heavy rain and sometimes snow. ("The only way is up, baby!")
    3-VERY HIGH: at least for the portuguese standards, finishing at 1650m. altitude at the "Lagoa Comprida" T juction.
    Enjoy the views.

      Nice and hard alternative to climb the Tower from Seia
