Mashan Nongla Scenic Spot is a climb of 3.1 kilometers (category 1). Mashan Nongla Scenic Spot tops out at 478 m above sea level. It is located in 南宁市, 广西壮族自治区, 中国. The average gradient is 10.0% with a maximum of 14%. The climb has 309 meters of elevation gain.
Difficulty analysis: This Category 1 climb is genuinely hard because of its uneven profile. The 10% average gradient is deceptive: the central section (KM 0.5 to 2.0) is very demanding, with gradients between 8% and 10%. The real difficulty lies in this wall of nearly 1.5 km, bracketed by gentler sections before and after.
How to manage the effort:
1. Pacing the key section: Don't let the easy start (3%) fool you. Save your legs for the 10% ramp that kicks off at 500m, then hold a steady rhythm through to KM 2.0.
2. Making the most of the final respite: After KM 2.0, the gradient eases noticeably (5%, then 2%). Use this last stretch to recover a bit and get your cadence back up before the summit.
