Very bad experience, the views are spectacular because they're not from the bar set up there, they think the mountain is theirs, I don't understand how they can give permits to set up beach bars in the middle of nature.

The description called this pass one of the most beautiful, promising impressive panoramas, a keen sense of altitude, and an almost complete absence of cars. It sounded promising. In practice, expectations didn't match reality. In December 2025, the place didn't make a strong impression: the landscapes were rather ordinary, the sense of altitude was barely perceptible, and there was no wow factor that would make you want to stop or return. Perhaps at other times of year or in different weather conditions, the pass reveals itself better, but in winter, it's more of an ordinary road with beautiful sections than a truly "one of the most"
