Tips

Climb analysis: At 7.9 km, with 375 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 4.8%, the Gardaneh Ye Tuni from Majareh is a demanding Category 1 climb. The hard work is concentrated between km 3.5-4.0 and km 5.5-6.0, where the gradient ranges from 7% to 9%, with the steepest section at km 4.5-5.0 at 9%. The rolling stretches at km 0.5-1.0 (1%) and km 1.5-2.0 (2%) give you some welcome breathers. The finale, at 2% over km 7.5-7.9, lets you get to the top without blowing up.

Tips for the effort:

1. Pace the start. On km 0.0-0.5, at 5%, don't go out too hard. Settle into a rhythm you can hold all the way to the summit.

2. Prepare for the key section. Tackle km 4.5-5.0 at 9% with an appropriate gear, keeping a smooth, steady cadence rather than mashing the pedals.

3. Recover on the flatter sections. Use the 1% (km 0.5-1.0) and 2% (km 1.5-2.0) sections to drink, eat, and get your breathing back under control before the hardest part.
