에브로 최고의 라이딩 경로

Alava mountains. Road from Lagran with good climbs, shade and good asphalt.

We set out with the hope of ascending to the summit of Tresmares, where the Hijar-Ebro River begins and flows into the Mediterranean, the Pisuerga River (a tributary of the Duero River) flows into the Atlantic, and the Nansa River flows into the Cantabrian Sea. But a thick, damp fog covering the landscape forced us to give up and head back down the same way we came up. The road is partially covered by a bike lane and very little traffic. A steady climb of around 10%. Absolutely recommended. A few years ago, the Alto Campoo pass was the final stage of La Vuelta a España.

Officially, it's the source of the Ebro River, in Fontibre. However, according to what we were told at the tourist office, the waters of the spring pools come underground from the Hijar River, which rises in Alto Campoo. Specifically, in Tresmares, where the Hijar-Ebro begins, flowing into the Mediterranean; the Pisuerga (a tributary of the Duero) flows into the Atlantic; and the Nansa flows into the Cantabrian Sea.

Absolutely worth seeing and beautiful place.

It acts as a "portillo" between valleys. Too bad you have to cross it on the same road.

The detour here is worth it.

Fantastic climb with little traffic and a breathtaking view at the summit!

Interesting to visit, if you are in the area.
