Ride Monte Zoncolan on your smart trainer

What the climb is like

After a short run-in from Ovaro the road kicks up and hardly drops below 12 percent until the top. The middle section, between Liariis and the tunnels near the summit, holds long stretches between 15 and 20 percent.

How to ride it in Pedalsim

Monte Zoncolan is one of the built-in Pedalsim routes: open it from the button below, or under Pedalsim routes in the app, and ride. Your trainer reproduces every change in its gradient as you climb, and the wind is the live weather at the climb, so a headwind on an exposed section feels like one.

On the 3D map you see the real mountain around you, with its forests, villages and the road winding up ahead, in the season and light of the day you ride. It is on Windows, Android, Linux and the web.

Think of it as an hour-long effort even if you are fast. Start well below your threshold power: there is nowhere to recover later.

Figures are approximate: sources measure the climb from slightly different points.
