Signal de Beausoleil from Le Petit Nepoulas

At just 2.6km, Signal de Beausoleil from Le Petit Nepoulas is short but deceptively intense — 145m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 5.5% disguises ramps of 11.6% — 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. Located in Limousin, France.
