Soda Springs is a rarely visited climb because it is a dead end and is away from more frequented routes. Situated to the south west of Los Gatos, Soda Springs is accessible from Alma Bridge Road, between Old Santa Cruz Highway and the Los Gatos Creek Trail. The gradient is quite consistent for the entire duration of the climb and averages 8% over the span of 5.3 miles. As a result, it climbs about 2300ft and is one of the few climbs longer than 5 miles in the area. It terminates at the gated private property at the top. Note: contains RW segment
