Montée des Épinais

Brittany, france

At just 0.7km, Montée des Épinais is short but deceptively intense — 42m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. Averaging 6%, the road kicks to 10.2% at its steepest — a testing gradient that demands respect. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Brittany, France.

  • A gentler outing by France standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
