A (Nearly) Complete List of Alpe du Zwift Strava Segments

Zwift’s new Alpe is a perfect place to test your fitness, with the full climb taking anywhere from 50 to 90 minutes for most riders. Interval efforts can also be put in between specific bends if desired.

We’ve created a set of Alpe du Zwift bike segments which include the full ascent, the full descent, and segments between (almost) each pair of bends. Here’s the list:

We are currently missing segments between bends 20-19, 19-18, and 17-16 due to Strava’s restrictions on “short” segments. The problem is, Strava does not take incline into consideration when determining how “short” a segment is, which means a 1 km 14% uphill segment is considered just as “short” as a 1 km downhill. We’ve submitted support requests for this to change, but we’re not holding our breath.

Note: Zwifters have already created many inaccurate Alpe segments. We recommend hiding these, for your own good and the good of the community. Here’s more on the how and why >

Eric, How about adding 21-19, 21-18, and 18-16. Then, at least, a rider can get the their own times for the short sections by subtracting? Once you are in the game, Zwift is very well executed, but there is so much that they could provide users in the web site that they don’t bother with. Like a list of all-time PRs that we can paste into a spreadsheet. Like a similar list of achievement badges so you don’t have to log into the game to see it. Oh well, at least you help fill in their gaps. For which tens… Read more »

I’m going to try exactly this. I’ll make them private at first, and if it works maybe I’ll make them public. Thanks for the suggestion!

In case anyone would prefer RideWithGPS to Strava, I’ve created a pretty close set of segments for the total ride and each turn. I think these are all within a couple seconds on each turn (based on looking at my own ride and comparing times to screen snips I took while riding), and the total is within 5 seconds. So not perfectly accurate but very close. I’ll delete these and refer people to the zwiftinsider official ones if you make any for RideWith GPS, but if not hopefully these are close enough for most users: https://ridewithgps.com/segments/1119600-alpe-du-zwift https://ridewithgps.com/segments/1119639-alpe-du-zwift-start-to-turn-21 https://ridewithgps.com/segments/1119640-alpe-du-zwift-turn-21-to-20 https://ridewithgps.com/segments/1119641-alpe-du-zwift-turn-20-to-19 https://ridewithgps.com/segments/1119642-alpe-du-zwift-turn-19-to-18… Read more »

The official Zwift version of the climb is 12,44km, the Zwift Insider version on Strava is 12,22km. Why the difference?

But last time I went up there I had a different time on zwift (58:40) vs Strava (58:15) while a friend of mine had the exact same time. How is that explainable? I assume that the starting and ending points are the same so the time should be the same too, despite the different lines and/or corners you might ride inbetween?

HI, Does anyone know where I can find the details of the 3 missing segments?
20 to 19
19 to 18 and 17 to 16?
looking for distance, feet climbing and avg %

I am sure someone must have simply written it down when riding?

Thanks
