This is one of the legendary climbs in Madrid and its surrounding areas. It's often used to test fitness throughout the season. It's a steady climb, with no steep inclines but almost no rest.
Beautiful views over the valley and, at the top, over the city of Madrid itself.

Well paved, shaded for the last 2 km, and light traffic during the week. In summer, it's best to get up early on weekends because of the traffic and heat. About 10 km from Miraflores.
