😤 No 10 🤬

Barhatch Lane - Surrey

That start of this climb begins very gently, almost lulling you into the possibility that there may not be a climb along the road at all. The climb begins to build, and tops out with an average of 20% as your approach the crest of the hill.

Devil's Staircase - central Wales

One of the steepest climbs in Wales, and also the remotest. The climbs starts off a hairpin bend at 25%, and the climbs reminds above 20% for the remainder of the climb, until the horizon starts to appear and flatten out.

Trapping Hill or Lofthouse - West Yorkshire

Used in the Tour de Yorkshire 2017, it’s a formidable hill. The gradient doesn’t get very steep, with the max at about 17%. But, it stays close to this 16% gradient for quite some time at the start. After nearly 2km, the gradient eases off and there is a long drag to the cattle grid at the top.

Honister Pass - Lake District

Honister pass is a fairly inaccessible climb in the north West Lake District. To get there invariably involves cycling up many other Lake District hills. The climb gets steeper and steeper as it goes up. The last 4km average out at 7%, but its last few metres that sting, with the final stretch of the climb clocking in at 20%.

The Bwlch - Powys, South Wales

There are three different ways up and over the Bwlch. Our most popular is via the Welsh village of Treorchy.

It is over 6km long with 360 meters of ascent, and an average gradient of 5%. Making this a tricky climb to summit. Once at the top, the views across the surrounding valleys make it worthwhile, as well as the downhill.
