About Lagos de Covadonga
The climb to the Lakes of Covadonga in the Picos de Europa is the Vuelta’s most famous summit finish. It is irregular, with steep ramps around La Huesera.
In rampida you ride the route exactly as it lies on the road: the gradient reaches your trainer metre by metre, the scenery is built from real elevation data and OpenStreetMap. A pacer group can pull you along, and next time you race your own ghost.
