Climb difficulty: This 4th category climb is a long, steady grind but not very demanding over most of its length. The challenge lies in its distance (8.4 km) and in the noticeable ramp-up over the final 1.5 km, where the gradient jumps to 4-5% after most of the climb has been at 2-3%.
How to manage the effort:
1. Pacing: Hold a moderate, steady tempo over the first 7 km (2-3% gradients) to save your legs. Don't go overboard on the easier sections.
2. Save something for the end: Get yourself mentally and physically ready for the final ramp (KM 7.0-8.4). Keep some energy in reserve so you can tackle the 4-5% section without blowing up.
