The first half of the ride will contain the ascents and descents and the second half is mostly a flat route back to Ronda.
You will start by cycling old cobbled streets down below the famous Puente Nuevo bridge in Ronda where a viewpoint will show it from its most glorious angle. From here you will ride up the other side of the valley and then descend once more out of Ronda.
