Tips

Difficulty analysis: This Category 3 climb is moderately hard. The first half (KM 0.0 to 4.0) is the most demanding, with a succession of steady gradients between 4% and 6%. Difficulty drops noticeably after KM 4.0, with a false flat (1%-3%) followed by a short descent (-4% to -2%) to the summit.

How to manage the effort:

1. Pace yourself on the steep part: Hold a steady power output over the first 4 kilometers to avoid blowing up.

2. Make the most of the respite: Use the false flat (KM 4.0-5.0) to recover and refuel before the finish.

3. Get back up to speed gradually: The final descent takes some effort to hold your speed, so anticipate when to start pedaling again.
