Velperweg from Loenermark

At just 1.9km, Velperweg from Loenermark is short but deceptively intense — 42m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. The average gradient of 2.2% disguises ramps of 5.3% — 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 Gelderland, Netherlands.
