About this route

Today a 'quiet' ride of only 30 km. Looking for climbs to train for the famous Pinguete that awaits me on October 1 in Paterna, I remembered the climb to the viewpoint in Salar. First, I took the detour of the service road that goes up a rather tough hill, which after a quick descent leaves you in Salar. I head towards the Barranco de Salar area and turn right to head to the viewpoint. I took the wrong path and ended up on a longer and significantly steeper asphalt climb, which finishes on a dirt road. After a steep descent of 27%, which I then had to climb back, I decided not to continue because I wasn't sure where it led, and I didn't want to get tangled up today. As I said, I went back the same way and took the correct detour to the viewpoint, with its ramps of almost 20%. Once up, a little break at the picnic area, quite dirty by the way, and then a descent to Salar and back to Loja. In the end, 30 km that, with the climbs I was looking for today, weren't bad at all.
