Chemin du Vulcan
Auvergne, france
At just 0.8km, Chemin du Vulcan is short but deceptively intense — 26m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 3.3% disguises ramps of 7.3% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Auvergne, France.
- Higher summit than 87% of climbs in France.
- A false flat around km 0 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
- A gentler outing by France standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
