The route from Fontaneda cemetery to the Sant Julià de Lòria road is approximately 6 kilometres. In this direction, the gradient is mainly negative, with a cumulative descent of around 400 metres. This makes it a route that is mainly downhill, although there are some sections with minor climbs.

The cumulative positive gradient is significant, reaching 700 metres of vertical ascent from the base of the resort to the summit of Les Portelles, which is around 2,560 metres above sea level. The terrain is varied, combining stretches of asphalt in the first sections with dirt and gravel tracks as you ascend. At some points, the terrain becomes more technical, especially near the summit, where rocks and the incline add difficulty. The climb is considered to be of high difficulty due to the gradient and terrain conditions. It is a demanding route for both MTB cyclists and eBike users, who will enjoy the additional challenge offered by the altitude and changing weather conditions in high mountains.

Pas de la Casa, meaning "House Pass", owes its name to a small shepherd's house that was located in the area. This area was historically sparsely inhabited due to its harsh climate and high altitude (about 2,080 metres above sea level). It was during the 20th century that Pas de la Casa began to develop significantly, especially due to the construction of the road connecting Andorra to France in 1933. This facilitated access and encouraged the growth of the local population and economy.
