Alto de Titiribí is a climb of 22.3 kilometers (hors catégorie). Alto de Titiribí tops out at 1,593 m above sea level. It is located in Loma del Guamo, Antioquia, Colombia. The average gradient is 6.6% with a maximum of 16.6%. The climb has 1476 meters of elevation gain.
Difficulty analysis: This hors catégorie climb is genuinely hard because of its length (22.3 km) and its big elevation gain (1476m). The 6.6% average gradient is deceptive: the first part is moderate (KM 0-5 at around 4%), but the difficulty ramps up significantly between KM 6 and 13 with sustained gradients of 6% to 8%. A short descent (KM 14-15 at -2% and -1%) offers a bit of respite before two final steep sections (KM 16-17 at 7% and KM 20-21 at 7%).
Pacing advice:
1. Start easy: Resist the temptation to go too hard over the first 5 kilometres, even though it's the least steep part. Save your legs for later.
2. Prepare for the tough sections: Save energy before the 7-8% stretches (KM 9-10, KM 13-14, KM 16-17, KM 20-21).
3. Make the most of the respite: Use the gentle descent between KM 14 and 16 to recover actively (spin the legs easy) before the final demanding part.
