Difficulty analysis: This Category 3 climb has two distinct parts.

The final part is easy (2%). The real challenge is this 1.5 km wall in the middle.
Pacing tips:
1. Save something for the key section: Don't go too hard in the first 3 km, which are easier, so you reach the steep part (KM 3.5-5.0) with fresh legs.
2. Keep a steady rhythm on the 10% ramp: On the steepest kilometre (KM 4.0-4.5), focus on a smooth, controlled pedal stroke to avoid blowing up your legs.
3. Use the final section to recover: The last 800m at low gradient let you ease off before the summit.
