Highly recommended! I think there are only 2 quick and mostly hassle-free ways out of the city and this is one of them. (The other being the Puerte del Leon climb). Hardly any motorised traffic, nice views, and manageable gradients all the way to Casabermeja. Don't miss this one, I promise you'll enjoy it.

Add this whole highlight to your route, don't add a singular waypoint because otherwise Komoot will trick you into a 15% gradient at Las Pitas.

Do road climbs get any better? Very quiet road twisting up the hill away from the busy city of Malaga. Great views of the city throughout

This section of the route offers a steady but noticeable climb and magnificent views. It gains approximately 500 meters in elevation, beginning gently and gradually increasing. The route leads through a diverse hilly landscape with olive groves and sweeping views of the Andalusian countryside. Shortly before Casabermeja, a somewhat steeper section awaits before reaching the white village at an elevation of approximately 550 meters. Once at the top, traditional inns and restaurants invite you to take a well-deserved break while enjoying the peace and quiet and the view of the mountains.
