The course climbs 2403m+. With 57m/km of climbing, this is a true mountain course with sustained climbs and descents. By gradient, 38% of the distance is uphill, 30% downhill and 32% flat. The longest climb runs 9.5km at an average 8.0% grade (759m of vertical). The longest descent runs 4.4km at an average 7.4% grade (328m of vertical). The steepest climb averages 24.3% over 0.3km.

Poles bring little benefit here: only about 3.4km of pole-friendly terrain.
Quad damage risk is moderate (index 24 of 100), with 50% of the load in the first half: 1 descent deserves a plan and a couple of downhill sessions before race day.
