デマンダの峠・トップ7

There is always the solution to difficult points: doing them by road.

A comfortable mountain pass that connects the provinces of Burgos and La Rioja. Both sides have beautiful views, and it is worth climbing both.

With the mountain route you can go up from Fresneda, reach the Pozo Negro (durillo), and from there to the Cruz de la Demanda, returning to Fresneda by road and passing through the top of La Pradilla.

The railway crossed this port through a tunnel. When making the greenway, the original route was not recovered, so the arrival and departure of the port are two very steep slopes. Most panniers make them by pushing the bike.

very bearable port

Mountain pass that reaches more than one thousand three hundred meters in height and has a length of just over seven kilometers on a four percent percentage.

It is a 4km climb on the BU-813 with an average gradient of 5.1%. As can be seen, the slope ranges between 4 and 6% without hard ramps (only one at 9%) and relatively constant with several horseshoe curves at the exit of the town but without excessive complication.

Direction to the famous mountain pass not only because it takes you to the foothills of the Lagunas de Neila but also because of its climb that comes from the center of Quintanar de la Sierra.
