Girona Bike Rides: Climb Guide. Rocacorba - does it match the hype?

Really enjoying the channel and two videos I've watched thus far. Im planning a trip in April so I think your work is going to be invaluable for me. Many thanks. Very relaxing and soothing to watch and listen to. Your voice and narration remind me of the TdF commentator who does the stage description!

Rode it about 3 years ago - reluctantly. I don't like "there & backs" and I agree with you, that there are many much better climbs to do. It snowed on us!! At least we had jackets to put on but it made for a chilly descent and run back into town.

It's over-rated imho :)

I liked Mare del Deu much better! But this was a nice one too.

It looks like you have moved on from Girona. Where's your next destination? I'm trying to plan a trip from Australia in 2025.

It is overrated, but still a nice climb. Unfortunately the tarmac on the second half is in a really bad condition, but still managabale if you avoid the potholes. Could not find the font. Glad the owner of the very last house before reaching the top provided some cold drinks (self service) in front of his house and I had some coins with me to donate. Saved my ride after 120k in the heat.

"Its overrated".. No its not. If people rate it and take the time to ride it as per the pros who used it for training, why is it overrated? Ive ridden it and loved every minute of it, honesty fridge included.

Overrated and slow bumpy descent. Girona is nice but it's not exciting to ride there
