Climb Description
Sa Creueta is more of an extension to other climbs, rather than a serious mountain in its own right. In particular, it is a nice option to extend rides to Coll de Rates and Tàrbena.It is mostly gentle climbing until the final 400m, where the gradients kick up well into double figures. Sa Creueta is commonly used by professionals training in the area, who include it on longer routes, and it also has fantastic mountain scenery, for riders who prefer to take their and appreciate the surroundings!
Sa Creueta is open throughout the whole year.
