Poppen from Unterkarla

At just 2.5km, Poppen from Unterkarla is short but deceptively intense — 153m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 6% disguises ramps of 13% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. The 3 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. Located in Styria, Austria.
