El Recogedor from San Pedro de las Cuevas
Castille and Leon, spain
At just 1.9km, El Recogedor from San Pedro de las Cuevas is short but deceptively intense — 84m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 4.5% disguises ramps of 11.3% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Castille and Leon, Spain.
- A false flat around km 1 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
- A gentler outing by Spain standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
