Tips

Climb analysis: This 4 km climb is short but extremely steep, with a brutal average gradient of 10.4%. Its difficulty lies in its irregularity: a very punishing spike at 18% between km 1.5 and 2.0, after an already hard section at 11%. The finish is easier at 6%, but the middle section is typical of a Category 1 climb.

How to manage the effort:

1. Pacing: Expect the wall at 18% (km 1.5-2.0). Start steady to save your legs, and use a gear that lets you keep a good cadence through this decisive section.

2. Break it down mentally: Split the climb into three parts: a warm-up at the bottom (km 0-1.5), a maximum effort over the steep ramp (km 1.5-2.0), and an active recovery on the easier final section (km 2.0-4.0).

3. Save your energy: Stay out of the saddle on the steepest pitches to spare your legs and your breathing, and sit back down as soon as the gradient drops to 8% after km 2.0 to recover.
