The pass is now paved and can be driven on by car.

During the mining era, this pass served as a discreet link between mines on either side, and minimal traces of old cart and mule traffic remain, though they don't coincide with the current road. From above, the wind is almost constant, and the view towards the Saliencia lakes has that air of a "natural viewpoint" before the term even existed. It's perfect to mark on Komoot as a key point on your route due to its spaciousness, its somewhat hidden history, and its character as a natural border.

The path climbs gently and opens abruptly into a hollow where the wind is ever-present. It was once used by shepherds crossing with their livestock to the summer pastures, and the remains of old dry-stone walls that marked the way can still be seen. From the top, the landscape widens, and the feeling is one of being between two worlds: the valley behind you and the mountain that awaits ahead.

The Alba Bridge is an 18th-century structure spanning the Bernesga River. It is also known locally for a car accident involving some bullfighters in the 1920s. They were traveling in an open-top car and fell into the river. Local residents rushed to their aid, and the following year the bullfighters organized a town festival in gratitude.

This hill is one of the highest points in the BTT center and is where the exit gates for many of the descents in the area are located.

Alfa Zone in La Robla, an amazing place with very nice descents for any level, preferably when it's not too hot.
