The climb to the Collado (also Puerto) de las Crucetillas from Batán del Puerto runs mostly through a valley. The surroundings are very beautiful and green, and make the impression of being deserted, there is hardly any traffic and cycling is not strenuous because the road hardly slopes upwards (often by around 2%). Here you can enjoy the cycling. The first and the last kilometer and a half (the last ones even have two hairpin bends), are slightly steeper (6%) and cross the forest. The road surface is of poor quality (in 2023).
