Sentiero Alpino Calanca

This very steep climb rises above Mesocco in Graubünden. Expect 31 to 52 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 38.2% and start 1.6 km in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. Facing southeast, it catches the morning sun and loses its snow earlier than most. The nearest named summit, Alta Burasca at 2,634 m, is 594 m away. At 16.0 TEP it is harder than 90% of the climbs in the catalogue. Graded alpine hiking: exposed, rocky ground that needs sure feet and some use of the hands.
