Chemin de l'Alpe

This long, very steep climb rises above Le Monêtier-les-Bains in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. Expect 62 to 105 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 25.7% and start 3.6 km in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. Southwest-facing: it gets the afternoon heat and clears of snow early.
