The ascent is primarily on pavement &#8211; notably the Amlo road constructed 2020-2023 &#8211; while the descent is principally on an old, little-used jeep road which spirals into the valley. The gradient is steep, ranging between 10% and 19%, making for a challenging climb and a screaming descent. Good exercise and great fun!  Round trip distance amounts to 62.9 kms (39.1 miles), with 1296 meters (4251 feet) of elevation change. Expect to spend a good five hours in the saddle to accomplish the loop. <\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/ridewithgps.com\/embeds?type=trip&#038;id=239889897&#038;sampleGraph=true\" style=\"width: 1px; min-width: 100%; height: 700px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"578\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"10058\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/2024\/11\/climbing-the-wall-again\/20241126_111242\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?fit=1058%2C1875&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1058,1875\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1732619562&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"20241126_111242\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?fit=197%2C350&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?fit=578%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"10058\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242-578x1024.jpg?resize=578%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10058\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?resize=578%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 578w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?resize=197%2C350&amp;ssl=1 197w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?resize=85%2C150&amp;ssl=1 85w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?resize=768%2C1361&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?resize=867%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 867w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oaxacamtb.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241126_111242.jpg?w=1058&amp;ssl=1 1058w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 578px) 100vw, 578px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The steep hillsides and crumbly rock make for frequent rockslides along the road.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This ride features a long climb to San Pablo Cuatro Venados, which looks out over the Valley of Oaxaca from a perch near the top of the mountain ridge which forms the western boundary of the valley.
