Tough climb (peaks at 20%) and very long (about 14 km), but the satisfaction once at the top is immense. Recommended for everyone, but only with good training. ATTENTION: There is no water along the climb, nor fountains of any kind, so stock up well beforehand. At a certain point, 1 km before the end of the climb there is a fake fountain, but the water is not drinkable, it is written but it is easy to miss the sign, do not drink there. Sometimes at the top there is a kiosk with sandwiches, water and other things, highly recommended.

Very long climb, it must also be tackled head-on.
