IT IS BEAUTIFUL HERE

This climb is not specifically hard apart from couple of switch backs and will allow you to look around and contemplate some Pyrenees around you.

The road surface is in excellent condition throughout.

There is some traffic on the climb, but it is never a real nuissance. The amount reduces considerably after passing through the village of El Serrat.
