Montepulciano via Strada per Pienza
Tuscany, italy
At just 1.8km, Montepulciano via Strada per Pienza is short but deceptively intense — 73m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 4% disguises ramps of 9.3% — 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 Tuscany, Italy.
- A false flat around km 1 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
- A gentler outing by Italy standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
