Alto de Urubici from Pericó

The Rodovia rises 19.9km through wooded valleys and open mountainside, gaining 529m to 1,566m. The average gradient of 2.6% disguises ramps of 9.9% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. This is a climb of endurance — the kind of effort measured in hours, where pacing matters more than power. The road reaches 1,566m — high enough to feel the altitude on tired legs. Located in Santa Catarina, Brazil.
