Simplonpass from Brig

Simplonpass from Brig covers 20.8km and 1,331m of climbing, reaching 2,005m at the summit. The average gradient of 6.4% disguises ramps of 14.6% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. This is a climb of endurance — the kind of effort measured in hours, where pacing matters more than power. At 2,005m, the summit rises above the treeline into an exposed, often windswept landscape. Located in Valais, Switzerland.
