Gerlos Pass from Zell am Ziller

The B165 rises 24.3km through wooded valleys and open mountainside, gaining 943m to 1,529m. The average gradient of 3.9% disguises ramps of 9.5% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. The 8 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. The road reaches 1,529m — high enough to feel the altitude on tired legs. Located in Tyrol, Austria.
