Tour de la Sambuy

This very steep climb rises above Plancherine in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Expect 36 to 61 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 37.9% and start 2.6 km in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. East-facing, so it takes the morning sun and is in shade by the afternoon. The nearest named summit, Le Parc du Mouton at 1,854 m, is 236 m away. At 11.0 TEP it is harder than 81% of the climbs in the catalogue. On the SAC scale it is mountain hiking, with uneven ground that asks for some care.
