The ride
This ride rolls out of Albendín and back again, with 61.1 km between. Most of it runs unpaved, so expect a mixed day under the wheels. You pass the Río Guadajoz river and later the Salinas Cuesta de la Paloma lake, each a marker on the way round. With 978 m of climbing spread across the loop, the route keeps giving you something to work for.
