Route de Vitarelle

Aquitaine, france

At just 1.3km, Route de Vitarelle is short but deceptively intense — 52m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 3.9% disguises ramps of 9.7% — 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 Aquitaine, France.

  • A false flat around km 0 offers brief respite before the road kicks up again.
  • A gentler outing by France standards — a good introduction to the country's climbing.
