Mirador Gresolet from Saldes

The Carretera rises 4.5km through wooded valleys and open mountainside, gaining 325m to 1,575m. A sustained 7.3% average gradient with a maximum of 9.5% makes this a steady and demanding ascent. The 2 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. The road reaches 1,575m — high enough to feel the altitude on tired legs. Located in Catalonia, Spain.
