Hirtenberg from Pesensricht

At just 0.8km, Hirtenberg from Pesensricht is short but deceptively intense — 36m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. Averaging 4.7%, the road kicks to 9.4% at its steepest — a notable steepening that demands respect. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Bavaria, Germany.
