Difficulty breakdown: The Ain Dem from Tabia is a Category 1 climb, 10.3 km long, with an average gradient of 5.2% for 530 m of elevation gain. The first four kilometers, between 4% and 7%, set a stiff pace that leaves little room for error. The heart of the climb lies between km 4.0 and km 6.0, where the gradient ramps from 8% to 11%, the steepest section of the pass. The stretch from km 6.0 to km 8.0, a gentle downhill, gives you a real breather before a long, steady final section between 5% and 6% all the way to the summit.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Pace yourself from the start. On km 0.0 to 4.0, hold a steady effort and don't go out too hard, so you reach the 11% section with fresh legs.
2. Prepare for the km 5.0 to 6.0 stretch. Shift to an easier gear before the 11% pitch, stay in the saddle and keep a smooth cadence to save your legs.
3. Recover on the descent, then settle in. Use the km 6.0 to 8.0 section to drink and loosen up your legs, then find a steady rhythm for the last kilometers at 5 and 6%.
