Tips

Difficulty breakdown: This Cat 1 climb is moderate in distance, but the gradient is demanding. The 5.4% average hides two key sections at 8% (KM 1.5-2.0 and KM 4.0-4.5), which are the toughest parts of the climb. The flat kilometre at KM 4.5-5.0 gives you a strategic breather before the road kicks back up.

How to manage your effort:

1. Prepare for the two 8% ramps: Pace yourself early (KM 1.0-1.5 and KM 3.5-4.0) so you hit these sections with something left in the tank.

2. Use the flat in the middle of the climb: Spin easy through KM 4.5-5.0 without pushing, and let your legs recover for the second half.

3. Keep a steady rhythm on the downhill false flats: The final kilometres (KM 6.5-7.3) at 1% let you pick up the pace and finish strong without burning extra energy.
