Alto de Cuchu Puercu – Espines Pass

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Good shortcut from Angliru to Gamoniteiro perfectly rideable with zero traffic. You may encounter cows and goats on the road so watch your speed. Has a few steep climbs but the shortcut and views are still worth the effort.

Alto de Gamoniteiro

Highlight • Summit

As we climb higher, we see the cloud filling the valleys below us, evoking an otherworldly environment that, combined with our fatigue, creates something magical. In many ways, it's a more visually impressive climb than Angliru.

The great thing about climbing and descending on the same side is that you can stop and enjoy the descent.
