Just returned to the states after having driven hundreds of miles on Spanish and Portugese highways. The wife and I kept remarking about how much these highways reminded us of the interstates in the western US. Such a wonderful experience.
A23 Autovia is the Spanish equivalent of I-70 Pennsylvania and Kansas Turnpikes Colorado Section and the 5 fwy Castatic Grade Exits 176-183 due to the switch overpass 2:10. Speed limit wise A23 Autovia is 120 kmh like I-70 in Colorado 120 kmh 75 mph except for selected segements which are 60-105 kmh 40-65 mph speed limits
This is a really interesting route to drive. Is there a reason why they split the lanes in new and old tracks in the past, why they didn't made a tunnel for all four lanes? As ever, you select a fine Soundtrack for this drive too. 👍😀
I have driven this route several times but only northbound. Southbound it looks way more interesting, especially the way down though sun glare is a problem regardless of the time of the day. You really don't notice how steep it is, I think the grade is what allows the high speed limit in the twisty uphill section.
European roads guy 😊 what happend to the video of Rostock - germany? Iv’e been trying to find the song for several years. I think oceanlab or Above & beyond made it. Will be very thankful for an answer
Great video! This video seems like one from Josan, seing the type of music. The road is great, obviously (it is a very recent pass). Some day I have to go to the Pyrenees area. It's a place that I still haven't got the change to go due to the pandemic however I will go there in the near future (I think). 03:38 Woow...
I drove many times while going to the ski resorts on the pyrenees. When It was a simple two way road, It had a nice set of 180 turns going on the opposite direction, It was fun for me, but probabily not for the poor truck drivers Who were facing overheating engines going uphill, and loosing brakes downhill. It was also a popular road within the motorcycle community too.
One my favorite section of A-23! I also see your old video in 2017 but same motorway and same section, 4 years ago: th-cam.com/video/poFFMH6D8qw/w-d-xo.html

Great drive, thanks for uploading! That area of Spain is really beautiful :)
Beautiful drive. Loved how it started in the clouds only to come out into beautiful sunshine. Definitely a drive I'd like to take. Thank you.
Great drive, this part of Aragón is really beautiful, I'd never get tired of it. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing this great video! I liked your former videos about this exciting pass and looked already forward to its completion.
Jako lijep i edukativni sadržaji na vašem kanalu, žalim v mnogo uspjeha, samo tako nastavite 💪
Really good thank you..great music too 👍
paysage magnifique 👍👍👍
Un salut depuis la France
This could be the Spanish version of the I-70 in Colorado. Canyons, tunnels, and into the plains.
I have driven on both, and yes, they are pretty similar!!

that big 180 degree curve can be driven surprisingly comfortable at higher speed. I thought it was a tight 80 km/h curve, but no.
Considering the truck having had to use an escape lane at 7:10...
@@EuropeanRoads it was way a tighter 180 with n330 60km h top
@@EuropeanRoads in fact u can see the lld curve, they build a viaduct, old one can be seen from viaduct and was much tighter
@@EuropeanRoads at 2:50 see old one
Very nice Road
very nice scenery

Enseguida se siente uno el carácter árido de la tierra, propia de gran parte de España. Tiene su propio encanto
You can do the new northbound

the Spain version
I live next there!!
You call your chanel "European" however no East and Central European roads are presented.. I see a discrepancy there..
And yet all of the roads posted are European, aren't they? He didn't name the channel "all the roads in Europe"
@@Intrepidity Gosh, you're right of course.. as always. Better save your comments for yourself I guess.
East European infrastructure sucks ass anyways compared to The Netherlands, France, Spain and Germany.
@@nagalon7255 right. Seems like you know what you're talking about..
@@akosh99 I wouldn’t dare to drive somewhere in Czech Country with potholes.
