Denia – Beniarrés
1. Briefing
2. CLimbs
The climb is known as one of the most demanding ascents in the province of Valencia. Initial sections are grueling, with gradients reaching 17% and even 20% in the first 3 km 💥. There’s a brief respite midway before encountering further steep inclines, again reaching up to 20%.
The initial 2 km offer a relatively manageable ascent. Following this, the climb transitions into its most challenging segment, featuring an 800 m stretch with gradients peaking at 19%.
The brief 3 km climb presents no significant challenges. Often ascended from the opposite side near Pego, this route promises a delightful descent, boasting breathtaking views along the way. Enjoy!
3. Traffic
You might encounter traffic in the initial 35 km, particularly between Oliva and Villalonga. Beyond this point, the roads become considerably quieter, offering several kilometers of car-free cycling.
4. Road Quality
The road quality remains consistently good for most of the track. However, the segment on “Coll de la Safor” tends to be narrow and may exhibit imperfect tarmac in some areas.
