Climb Description
La Cabra Montés is a picturesque viewing platform on the eastern edge of the Almijara Mountains. The scenery is similar to many climbs in Andalucía, with olives and pine trees both competing for space on the rocky terrain.This is not a spectacular climb that is worth going far out of your way to climb, but if you are already in the area it is well worth doing. It is open all year.
Roads & Traffic
The road surface is in good condition and there is little traffic throughout the climb.
