Description

Ascent to the port of Coll de la Gallina via Fontaneda, 1st Category Special Dificulty (hors catégorie) Port.
Then this rote goes on along the CS-143 to the Gallina mountain pass at an altitude of 1,910 metres. Its level is 1sp (difficult). The route has an average gradient of 8.4% with a positive height change of 1,019 metres and a distance of 12.2 kilometres. Alessando Ballan won the stage of the Vuelta a España along the same route in 2008, shortly before he was proclaimed world champion.

I see this one classified as Fist Category or Special Category depending on where I see.
I really thing this is an Special Category with the last 4km in an average slope of 10% and max slopes of 18%.
