Le Petit Puy

Auvergne, france

At just 1.6km, Le Petit Puy is short but deceptively intense — 58m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 3.5% disguises ramps of 10.1% — 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 Auvergne, France.

  • A false flat around km 1 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
  • A gentler outing by France standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
