비단고즈/비단코제‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 산길

Olotoki Peak rises in a wild and sparsely populated corner of the Salazar Valley, where mountaineers will find numerous peaks, some quite steep. Among them are Olagato, Beortea, Santa Cruz, Peñas de Bezea, the Arburúa hermitage, and others. All of these mountains are covered with boxwood and pine trees that occupy the sunny slopes, and beech trees on the higher elevations. The climb to the pass from Izal is tremendously difficult.

Up to kilometer 12, the climb is gentle. From there, it becomes more difficult, and you'll face some slopes with a 10% gradient. The total climb is 26 kilometers, and the total ascent is 1,048 meters. During the climb, you'll find good road surfaces and beautiful scenery.

It is a beautiful mountain pass that links the Roncal Valley (Navarra) with the Ansó Valley (Aragon). It is a mountain pass that I am very fond of for several reasons: (i) the road is very winding, with many curves and hairpin bends, especially on the Navarre side (ii) it is a mountain pass with no steep slopes on either side (iii) there is hardly any car or motorcycle traffic. It is very peaceful and you can fully concentrate on the climb, on your pace, on your sensations. The asphalt on the Aragonese side is in very poor condition, although that also makes it attractive because you can imagine what the roads were like that professionals used in the 90s and before. It can be linked to other ports and is a beautiful gateway to the Pyrenees.

The Puerto de Laza is a small and beautiful hill that joins the valleys of Roncal (starting from Isaba) and Salazar (starting from Ochagavía) in the Navarrese Pyrenees. Both sides are very similar: a very easy start on a winding road, in perfect condition but without a hard shoulder, passing through small towns and going up the course of the respective rivers Anduña (Salazar valley) and Urbi (Roncal valley); a final stretch of 2 - 3 kms that is harder without being too much so, although there are some slopes above 10%. The Salazar valley side becomes harder when leaving behind the detour to the Larrau port. From here to the port there are 3 km with an average gradient of 7%. On the other hand, the Roncal valley side becomes harder when overcoming a bridge over the river that has been with us since we left Isaba behind. From here it is barely 2 km with an average gradient of 7%. From a landscape perspective, it is a port that I love because you can enjoy the exuberance of the vegetation of the Pyrenees, crossing narrow valleys and only with panoramic views when you reach the top, where there is a viewing point that is worth looking out at. A port that I always recommend for enjoying cycle tourism. I leave you the profile of both sides produced by the website www.cyclingcols.com --> http://www.cyclingcols.com/col/Laza

The Col de Laza is located in Spain not far from the French border and the port of Larrau. Shorter than its neighbour, its ascent takes place in the middle of a beautiful forest which opens onto lovely views of the surrounding mountains.

From here there are several routes along forest tracks with beautiful forests and good views of the Pyrenees. Especially pretty in the fall!

Small port compared to its neighboring brothers. But it can do a lot of harm when you go for the Larra-Larrau bicycle tour
