Roadway:
Concrete surface. The road is a dead end at the top (essentially no traffic) with a concrete wall to cling to while you catch your breath after this insane climb. 

Parking:
There's street parking on Broadway Street along the climb, but you'll feel like your car is going to tip over and roll down the hill!

We love San Francisco. The combination of legendary steepness, good food, and tons of great sightseeing makes this an awesome city to cycle in. Just outside the city are some of the most popular cycling climbs in America, like Mt. TamMt. DiabloHawk Hill, and Mt. Umunhum, making the Bay area one of the best cycling destinations in the country.

CLIMB SUMMARY

A road so steep we thought our car was going to roll over! Be careful while opening up your doors!!

The look of pure terror before attempting a climb like this...

This climb is pure pain - especially if you start down by where the tunnel starts (between Powell and Mason). You won’t regret climbing it when you’re done, but you will while you’re doing it.

Incredible views of the city and Bay Bridge from this climb.

You’re going to be doing the same thing as us after this one (gasping for air)

This may not be the steepest climb in San Francisco by the numbers, but it definitely felt like it was at the time....  It's so short that no topographical maps can pick up the accurate gradient, so our numbers might be wrong. In fact, we’ll bet on the fact that they were wrong, and you can let your legs do the talking to prove us wrong…. 😂
