Col de Saint-Ignace from Sare

At just 2.9km, Col de Saint-Ignace from Sare is short but deceptively intense — 122m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 4.2% disguises ramps of 10.9% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. The 2 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. Located in Aquitaine, France.
