Chemin des Estives

Auvergne, france

At just 1.4km, Chemin des Estives is short but deceptively intense — 80m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. Averaging 5.6%, the road kicks to 10.9% at its steepest — a testing gradient that demands respect. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Auvergne, France.

  • Higher summit than 93% of climbs in France.
  • A false flat around km 0 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
