Route Description
Route profile by ZwiftHub – the place to plan and track your route achievements!
Begin in the Jungle start pens and turn left out of the pens to head toward Watopia proper. At the first intersection, just 1 kilometer into your ride, you’ll turn right to head up the Epic KOM Reverse. It’s time to climb!
You’ve got 5km of climbing ahead at an average gradient of 5.9%, but be prepared for steeper pitches. This climb has two short downhill bits in the middle, plus a flat finish, so the climbing portions average closer to 10%.
There are 8 hairpin turns on this portion of the Epic KOM Reverse, so count ’em as you go and pace yourself for a strong finish. See you at the top!
