The climb

Puerto de El Miserat climbs 5.0 km at an average of 10.1%, gaining 505 m to a summit at 627 m. The average hides a lot: the kilometres swing widely either side of it, so the climb is a sequence of ramps and easier stretches rather than a constant effort.

The hardest kilometre measures 13.8% and comes in the final third of the climb, and 3 kilometres of the ascent average more than 8%, 3 of them above 10%. It does not relent at the top: the final kilometre is still 13.8%.
