Itinerary description
1st day of the Tour del Sufrimiento, which starts in Jarabacoa.
After an up and down route along the river you get to La Cienega. There is a stop here for drinks etc. The time trial starts here. The timed section is a tough route that takes you up steep trail. About an hour, if you are good.
The timed section is followed by up and down partly technical trail and finally dirt road with traffic along last 10 or so kms to Contanza.
Overall this route takes you from tropical temperatures to colder in line with the elevation. Total time 4 to 6 hours, depending on weather. If it rains, the steep trail is very muddy and slow. Great scenery. Bring enough water and carbs.
