Riffelschartensteig
This very steep climb rises above Grainau in Bayern. Expect 53 to 90 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 50.6% and start 3.1 km in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed.

At 24.0 TEP it is harder than 96% of the climbs in the catalogue. Graded alpine hiking: exposed, rocky ground that needs sure feet and some use of the hands.
