Le Buet
A short, very steep climb above Vallorcine in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The hardest 500 metres average 36.7% and come almost at once, before your legs have settled. Expect 18 to 31 minutes. At 10.0 TEP it is harder than 79% of the climbs in the catalogue. North-facing, so it holds shade and snow longer than the sunny side of the valley. It is graded demanding alpine hiking: exposed scrambling, where a fall would be serious. The nearest named summit, Mont Buet at 3,096 m, is 512 m away.
