Route du Bout de Las

At just 1.7km, Route du Bout de Las is short but deceptively intense — 75m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 4.4% disguises ramps of 8.9% — 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 Bourgogne, France.
