Climb Description
La Llacuna is a pleasant and fairly challenging climb, with some steeper gradients than the average suggests. It is set in the Almirante Mountains and the climb is named after the small urbanización of La Llacuna situated on the Villalonga side.It is the only road which connects the Serpis Valley with the Gallinera Valley, which makes it a good resource for cyclists looking to do longer routes in the area. The climb has been used in recent editions of the Tour of the Valencia Community cycling race.
La Llacuna is open throughout the year.
