Col du Galibier


It's 2,645 meters (8,678 feet) high and 18.1 kilometers (11.24 miles) long, starting in Valloire. It has an average gradient of 6.9%, with a maximum of 12%. It's the highest finish in the Tour de France. It's the Col du Galibier.

I'm going to attempt to cycle up it in June. I may die. But, at least I'll be in shape!
