Guarda from Giarsun

At just 2.8km, Guarda from Giarsun is short but deceptively intense — 255m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. A sustained 9.2% average gradient with a maximum of 12.6% makes this a steady and demanding ascent. The 5 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. The road reaches 1,671m — high enough to feel the altitude on tired legs. Located in Grisons, Switzerland.
