Kutzenberg from Altmainsee

At just 1.5km, Kutzenberg from Altmainsee is short but deceptively intense — 58m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 3.8% disguises ramps of 7.8% — 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.
