Monument Valley

The 17-Mile rises 3.6km through wooded valleys and open mountainside, gaining 141m to 1,696m. The average gradient of 4% disguises ramps of 13.8% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. The 2 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. The road reaches 1,696m — high enough to feel the altitude on tired legs. Located in Arizona, United-states.
