Tips

Difficulty analysis: This 25.8 km HC climb is genuinely hard despite a moderate average gradient of 5%. The difficulty lies in its uneven profile: a fairly rolling first section (KM 0-14) and a much harder second half (KM 15-25.8), with gradients of 8-9% over the final kilometres.

Tips for managing the effort:

1. Pacing: Save your legs over the first 14 km, which have several sections at low or zero gradient. The climb really starts after KM 15.

2. Prepare for the key sections: Get ready mentally and physically for the series of steep ramps (7-9%) between KM 15 and 22, and for the 9% finish.

3. Active recovery: Use the short flat sections (KM 4, 11-13) to briefly ease the pressure on your legs without losing momentum.
