Difficulty breakdown: With 3.4 km for 232 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 6.9%, this Cat 3 climb sits in the range of tough but doable climbs. The real challenge is consistency: the gradient never drops below 6%, and it hits 8% between 2.0 and 3.0 km, right when the legs start to feel it. The last section, at 6%, is a bit less steep but shouldn't be underestimated.
Tips for pacing the climb:
1. Start easy Through the first half-kilometer at 7%, don't go out too hard. Settle into a steady rhythm you can hold all the way to the top.
2. Handle the 8% section Between 2.0 and 3.0 km, pick a gear you can spin comfortably and keep a smooth cadence rather than mashing the pedals.
3. Finish strong On the final 3.0 to 3.4 km stretch at 6%, gradually ramp up the pace while saving something in the tank to attack the summit.
