Bergstrasse from Scherbda

At just 0.4km, Bergstrasse from Scherbda is short but deceptively intense — 51m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. At 11.3% average, every metre is earned. The steepest sections touch 13.7%, where the road feels more wall than road. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Thuringia, Germany.
