Climb Description

Puerto de Alisas is an enjoyable climb, with really pleasant views along most of the ascent. From Arredondo the road is lined by trees for much of the way; although there are glimpses of the impressive Collados de Asón Natural Park.

Alisas is usually open throughout the year and is a great choice for a long ride when combined with other climbs in the area.
