The route

A long, steady climb through the interior of Fuerteventura, from Tuineje to the Mirador de Morro Velosa. You leave Tuineje heading north and west on inland roads, among malpaís lava plains, dry ravines and bare ochre mountains, pass through the Pájara and Betancuria area and finish at the viewpoint, perched above the Betancuria massif and the plains of the island's centre. All on tarmac, with moderate gradients and a steeper final stretch up to the viewpoint. The wind is in charge: it can blow hard and head-on. Bring water from home; there are bars in the villages along the way, but no shade at all in between. You can ride it all year round; in summer, set off very early.

Track based on OpenStreetMap (points from relation 19895877, CIMA climb LP09-1) (ODbL).

Before you set off, check the state of the road or track and follow the traffic rules. Enjoy the ride.
