Puerto del Barco
Puerto del Barco from Villanueva de la Concepción climbs on a narrow rural road with no markings. It feels more like a farm road than a classic mountain pass. The surface is good, but the gradient is steep from the start and stays hard for most of the climb.
The landscape is open and exposed. You ride past wide cereal fields, olive groves, and soft rolling hills. There is no tree cover and almost no traffic.
