Moelypenmaen from Pentreuchaf
Wales, wales
At just 0.9km, Moelypenmaen from Pentreuchaf is short but deceptively intense — 44m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 4.7% disguises ramps of 11.5% — 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 Wales, Wales.
- A false flat around km 1 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
- A gentler outing by Wales standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
