Geiersberg from Röttenbach

At just 1.7km, Geiersberg from Röttenbach is short but deceptively intense — 52m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 3.1% disguises ramps of 7.7% — 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 Bavaria, Germany.
