Grosser Ahornboden

The Risstal rises 24.7km through rolling hills and mountain roads, gaining 435m to 1,207m. The average gradient of 1.8% disguises ramps of 5.2% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. This is a climb of endurance — the kind of effort measured in hours, where pacing matters more than power. Located in Karwendel, Austria.
