Route Description
Overall, this route is fairly tame in terms of climbing, maintaining a rolling profile except when it takes you over the reverse KOM (1.1km, 8.1%) which tops out at a 17% grade. But if you’re racing multiple laps of this route, be warned: it’s gonna hurt!
Lead-In Notes
This route has one of the longest and hardest lead-ins of any Zwift route, since it’s 10.5km long and includes a fair amount of climbing, taking you up the reverse KOM.
The actual route (and our Strava segments) begin at the KOM banner, after the lead-in. When you ride through the KOM banner a second time, you’ve completed one lap of the route.
