Few opportunities to eat or drink between Sort and Adrall. No cafe at the top of the pass. If the weather is good, buy a picnic in Rialp or Sort to eat at the top. Plenty of hotels and restaurants, including a Parador, in La Seu d'Urgell. Although the climb is long, the views are splendid and it is nowhere too steep.
Road down is fast and has lots of views.
In La Seu d'Urgell you could see the cathedral, cloisters and cloisters museum - all were inexplicably shut when we tried. The park is very pleasant for a stroll and a drink. Then poor quality, broken asphalt road to Cardona. Uphill after Castellardela Ribera, steep only in one section. Descent into Solsona made a little treacherous by road surface.
