La Vecquée from Ville au Bois

At just 1.6km, La Vecquée from Ville au Bois is short but deceptively intense — 57m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 3.6% disguises ramps of 7.9% — 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 Wallonia, Belgium.
