Tips

Difficulty analysis: The climb of Bystrá has a progressive difficulty that peaks in its last third. The gradient steadily increases, from 3-4% over the first 4 km to tough sections of 8-9% between km 7 and km 10. The final kilometre (7%) offers a bit of respite before the finish. The combination of almost 11 km of length and sustained gradients late in the climb fully justifies its 1st category classification.

Effort management tips:

1. Pace yourself: Start steady over the first kilometres (3-4%) to save your legs for the steeper pitches ahead.

2. Prepare for the heart of the climb: Get ready mentally and physically for hard work from the 6th km, where the gradient stays above 6% for nearly 5 km.

3. Save something in the tank: Even though the gradient eases slightly over the last 900 metres, the cumulative effort makes this section hard. Don't go all-out before the KM 10 sign.
