サン・クガ・デル・ヴァレスの峠・トップ5

バルセロナの美しい景色が開ける登り。

The road from Horta to Cerdanyola del Vallès connects the Vallès with the capital through a port with two different slopes, short and intense from Barcelona, and long and continuous from Cerdanyola. A good panoramic view from the Coll, where it crosses the Passeig de les aigues through a footbridge.

Connection point for tracks and trails next to the road

One of the most beautiful climbs through the Collserola Park. The views of the Vallés, with the surrounding mountains of La Mola, Tagamanent, Montseny and Montserrat are well worth it. It is a road in perfect condition without a hard shoulder and with some traffic, although not a lot. It is a classic among cycle tourists in Barcelona. The south side, the one in Barcelona, is very sunny and warm. The Cerdanyola del Vallés side is shaded and very humid, especially on cool winter days.

High point. A challenge.

Challenging climb due to high gradient at times, with little traffic.

It is a very pleasant and quiet climb that connects Gelida with the area of Corbera de Llobregat and Palma de Cervelló. The two slopes are very fun and shady, the Gelida slope being more constant and the Corbera slope with steps. At the top of the port there is a very legendary bar where you usually stop to have a coffee... or eat something else.

Morning without rain, to enjoy this route that, except for the Cross, through the interior of Corbera and SAB, forces us to negotiate slides and notable differences. Route of the 2023 lap. Today the luxury company, with a pace far beyond my reach. Next time, more and better.
