Le Grand Buron
Vaud, switzerland
At just 1.4km, Le Grand Buron is short but deceptively intense — 58m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. Averaging 4.1%, the road kicks to 7.2% 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 Vaud, Switzerland.
- A false flat around km 1 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
- A gentler outing by Switzerland standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
