This route is very popular with cyclists because it offers us a good positive elevation gain (almost 600 m) very progressively, over a long distance. This slope places it at the upper limit of level 3 of our difficulty scale (between 400 and 600 m of slope). Due to its distance and unevenness, it is a route similar to that of the Arcedian Bridge in the Barranca de Huentitán.
