CLIMB SUMMARY

Cycling Col du Pré

Ride 13.1 kilometers gaining 989 meters at 7.6% average grade.

Col du Pré is becoming a Tour favorite?  Well, after never being featured from 1903 to 2018, its burst on the scene with appearances in 2018 and 2021 👍🚵👍.  

For 2021, Col du Pré is one of, albeit the least known, only 5 HC climbs of 59 categorized climbs in the TdF - taking its place alongside some of the most famous, toughest and spectacular climbs in the world:  Mont Ventoux, Col du Tourmalet, Luz Ardiden and Col de Portet. . . and rightly so!

The climb is 13 kilometers and begins in Beaufort
