The route

The Iregua valley side of the La Rasa climb, listed in the CIMA (LR11). You leave the valley road and climb a narrow, quiet mountain road in the Cameros, between oak woods and pastures, up to the top. The gradient is irregular, with no long stretches to recover. In the valley you'll find bars and fountains in the villages; on the climb, nothing: set off with full bottles. Best from spring to autumn; in winter watch out for ice and snow near the top. From the top you can drop down to Jalón de Cameros and link up with the Collado de Sancho Leza.

Track based on OpenStreetMap (CIMA climb LR11-1) (ODbL).
