Climb Description

Puerto del Viento is a short and easy climb from the historic town of Ronda. The name (which translates as 'Windy Pass'), may make it sound somewhat daunting, but it is rarely blowing a gale up here either!

From Ronda the climb becomes increasingly more scenic the higher you ascend, and the resulting long descent into El Burgo is also highly enjoyable.

Puerto del Viento is open throughout the year.

The road surface is in very good condition throughout.

There is generally little traffic on the climb.
