Route Description

Route profile by ZwiftHub – the place to plan and track your route achievements!

Beginning at the main lap banner, we get to zip downhill for just a bit before hitting the flat farmlands. Whiz through the rice paddies, then hang a right and start an easy uphill toward the Castle area.

You’re at the start of the Castle KOM, but you won’t be completing it. Instead, you’ll stay to the right and go downhill to the lap banner.

Is the loop tarmac only? (It would be useful to see road surface details for all the routes)

Yes, this loop is tarmac only.

This looks like a good short loop with just enough climbing

There is hic up in the route. Selected with intention of doing the castle climb and through the village sprint then back down to the hill. Still got the route badge even thou I turned different way not doing the short connector between castle climb and the main loop road.

This route doesn’t hit the Village Sprint. Just up part of the Castle Climb then back down to the start/finish banner.

Still got the route badge which was not my plan which surprised me.

It would be nice to have the heads up disply of at least the mile markers. Any reason why not?

Hi, there’s a bug when running this route. In the last km you get diverted off course so never get to complete it. Frustrating. It’s posted on Zwift Forums but no response as yet.

The information on this route is either wrong or out of date, its not the second flattest , its third flattest (after wandering flats and two village loop)
