Difficulty breakdown: The Tizi n'Outfi from Aït Wakrim is a HC climb: 10.3 km for 736 m of vertical gain at an average gradient of 7.2%. The first three kilometres, between 4 and 6%, give you a chance to get your legs turning, but the road gets properly steep between km 6.0 and km 8.0, with sections at 9% and then 11%. The stretch from km 9.0 to 10.0, at 9%, keeps the legs burning right up to the finish, so pacing is the main challenge on this climb.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Save something in the tank early on Between km 0.0 and km 3.0, the 4 to 6% gradients will tempt you to go too hard. Hold a steady pace so you still have plenty left for the hardest part.
2. Shift into an easier gear between km 6.0 and km 8.0 On the 9% and 11% ramps, drop into a small gear and keep a smooth, steady cadence without surging, so your legs don't blow up.
3. Don't ease off after km 9.0 The 9% section from km 9.0 to 10.0 can be mentally tough, so keep a steady rhythm all the way to the summit and top up your fuel before this section.
