Côte du Calvaire

At just 0.9km, Côte du Calvaire is short but deceptively intense — 70m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. A sustained 7.6% average gradient with a maximum of 9.2% makes this a remarkably consistent and demanding ascent. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Auvergne, France.
