The climbs that shape the race
The track holds 3 major climbs and 3 major descents. The biggest climb runs from km 3 to km 10 (through Râulețul): +1,170 m over 7.5 km at an average of 15.7%. The longest descent drops 1,147 m over 5.8 km from km 12 (through Capu' Piciorului), at an average of 20.0%.
Distance, total climb and high point are the organiser's. Each section's climb, descent, grade and high point, the low point and the named climbs are measured on the official GPX with the same method as the interactive profile, so the sections can add up to a slightly different total.
