This port is one of the classics of the area. It can be done uphill from Gandia, so the journey is 10km that starts with a very gentle slope and gets steeper at the end with the true port (3.5km).
Going downhill, you have to be careful because high speeds are achieved thanks to the good asphalt and the layout of the curves. And I say that you need to be careful not only for physical integrity, but also because the civil guard charges cyclists with excessive speed.
