Route du Sex Armaille

A short, power-hike climb above Leytron in Valais. The hardest 500 metres average 22.2% and start 506 m in, in the middle of the climb, so pace the first part. Facing southeast, it catches the morning sun and loses its snow earlier than most. Most runners need 9 to 16 minutes. Its 2.1 TEP puts it in the easier half of the catalogue. Graded as a hiking trail, so fitness matters more than footing. The nearest named summit, Châtillon at 2,242 m, is 200 m away.
