    Just under 2km in length, this climb averages 8% but towards the top ratchets up to well over 10% to maximise the suffering

    Incredible climb with stunning landscape. You will need to climb all the way from Rhosygwaliau village, but the 'real' climb starts at crossing the cattle grid where you can see the whole climb ahead. It climbs slowly at first, before very difficult bends to the summit.

    Awesome road climb, with a nasty little surprise kick up at the top.
