A legendary climb in Estepona enters the first division of Spanish cycling

The Councilor for Sports in Estepona, Luis Gil, has announced that the Royal Spanish Cycling Federation has classified the route between Peñas Blancas-Los Reales as Legendary "and for this reason, the City Council has already begun to install the approved signage by the Spanish Federation itself, which will inform cyclists that they are traveling a route valued for its great beauty and difficulty."

Gil has assured that this route is "highly appreciated both by professional athletes and amateur cyclists". "A recognition that contributes to increasing the sports, tourist, and environmental offerings of the city, in addition to improving the competitiveness and excellence of Estepona as a sports tourist destination," he pointed out.

Thus, "with this recognition, the cycling route officially becomes one of the most outstanding in the national scene due to its unique characteristics in terms of distance, elevation gain, slope, and altitude," stated Luis Gil.

All the signage that is already being placed starts from the roundabout located on Avenida de Los Reales de Estepona, passing through the MA-8301 road and the Los Realillos area, as well as other paths in the Los Reales de Sierra Bermeja Natural Park. All of it is funded by the Municipalities of Andalusia Tourism Program (MUNITUR) of the Junta.

Both the kilometer markers and the information panels will be in Spanish and English, including a QR code with more information about the route.
