Palombaggia from Murtone

At just 2.8km, Palombaggia from Murtone is short but deceptively intense — 158m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 5.7% disguises ramps of 13.6% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. The 4 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. Located in Corsica, France.
