Mountain Route is a high-altitude loop that includes the Epic KOM and a variety of smaller climbs, making it a course for climbers who love to stay at elevation. This route focuses on sustained climbing with breathtaking views from the mountain heights, making it as scenic as it is challenging.
Climbers will look to break away on the Epic KOM, where the extended climb provides a perfect opportunity to gain time. Attacks will likely come early in the climb, with climbers aiming to separate from the pack before the summit. Rouleurs will struggle to keep up here, so climbers with stamina and power have the best shot at victory.
