Col de la Cochette from Villard-d'Héry

At just 2.2km, Col de la Cochette from Villard-d'Héry is short but deceptively intense — 145m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 6.7% disguises ramps of 14.3% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. The 6 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. Located in Rhone-Alpes, France.
