La Croix de Taix from Blanchet
Auvergne, france
At just 1.1km, La Croix de Taix from Blanchet is short but deceptively intense — 59m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The gradient averages 5.4% — steady enough to find a rhythm, steep enough to feel it. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Auvergne, France.
- Higher summit than 85% of climbs in France.
- A gentler outing by France standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
