Tour du Taillefer en 4 jours

A very steep climb above Chantepérier in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The hardest 500 metres average 31.7% and come almost at once, before your legs have settled. Expect 30 to 51 minutes. At 16.0 TEP it is harder than 90% of the climbs in the catalogue. Northeast-facing: morning sun only, and snow lingers into spring. It is graded demanding mountain hiking: expect sections where you watch every step.
