demolishing

A strenuous route, the last 3 km are just a steep uphill road, which is exhausting and dangerous because the cars are so close by.

Mataró > Vallter / Setcases (Camprodon Valley) 03/19/2024 - Stage 2 Tour of Catalonia

It is a great unknown in this area of the Pyrenees and is simply spectacular, its 2 slopes. It also has hardness on both sides. The longer eastern slope starts from Sant Joan de les Abedesses and crosses several villages and Romanesque churches. It is a port that goes in steps, with areas of very hard ramps and rests later. The asphalt in the final part is in very poor condition, although it can be circulated easily. The west slope starts from Ribes de Freser and has 2 very different parts. Until you reach the town of Brugera, with an irregular but sufficiently wide asphalt road and a sustained slope of 6 - 7%. From Bruguera, the asphalt turns into concrete and the slope rises to 9%, remaining constant until reaching the top. The views crowning this slope are precise.

The views of Bruguera as you approach across the road are very beautiful. This is the easy area of the Col de Jou on its west side, so you should take the opportunity to stop and take some photos!

It is a (large) town located at the intersection of 2 valleys. In the past it was very relevant because the town was a passageway to access the Cerdaña region through the Collada de Toses. It is an ideal town to establish a base camp and get to know the regions of Berguedà and Cerdaña. The town has all kinds of services. Below I indicate nearby places that are interesting for cycling: - Collada de Toses (either for its traditional and easy slope or for the much harder slope that runs through the town of Toses) - Coll de les Barraques - Coll de Jou - Querabalbs and Vall de Nuria (the latter with Gravel) - Climb Puigmal (by mountain bike) - Climb to Campelles - Climb to Ventolà and Nevarás Impossible to get bored... and you will enjoy spectacular landscapes with hardly any traffic.

Setcases is a picturesque town, in which stone houses, streets and alleys are carefully restored and retain all the flavor of a high mountain town in the Pyrenees. We are one of the gateways to the Cabeceras del Ter and Freser Natural Park, a must-visit for years for mountain and nature lovers and an exceptional setting for practicing all kinds of activities: in winter, in the Vallter 2000 mountain station, and in summer, to enjoy the landscape, hiking, cycling, family tourism, etc. Delve into our heritage and our culture. Enjoy the wide range of restaurants with local cuisine. Legend has it that a father and his seven sons, ranchers, who had never climbed the mountain, stopped on the plain of Els Hospitalets so that the sheep could graze. When they had been there two days, it started to snow. The children were amazed, because they had never seen snow, and they ran to tell their father, who was blind. The father explained to them that this was snow, that it would cover all the grass and that the sheep would die of hunger. They began to go down, and the father decided that they would stay where there was elderberry. In the place where they stayed, each of the seven children built a cabin, which gave rise to the name Setcases ("seven houses" in Catalan).

Small mountain village located at the foot of Taga and on the way to Coll de Jou. It can be a good place to rest and refuel before following the 6 km of the Coll de Jou on cemented track and ramps of 8-9 on average.
