Shape: sustained — 30% of the climbing sits in a quarter of the distance; longest continuous stretch at 10%+ is 268 m.
Found purely from mapping and LiDAR data, and not yet matched against books, race records or lists — it may be well known to locals under a name we've never heard. It was cross-checked against the GIP.at road network, OpenStreetMap and a second terrain model, but a discovery can still be an artifact of the terrain model or the map. Treat it as a well-evidenced hypothesis until someone has ridden it. If you know this road, tell us what you found — photographs, corrections and local knowledge all welcome; the map links below let you scout it first.

This climb's data: OCL JSON — the full gradient ladder, quality flags and provenance in the OpenClimb Ladder format.
Surface: GIP.at, Austria's official transport graph records no surface for this road; the map may tell you more.
Access: Held 2026-09-13 (hairpin cut, window off the road): no road-authority segment within 20 m of the steepest window, and the line bends 119 degrees within 60 m of the window with a 41-degree kink inside it — the measured line has cut the inside of a switchback and read the bank, not the road (Llanellen to Coed y Prior class, Peter 2026-09-13; the standing rule of 2026-09-09 holds any window more than 15 m off the inventory line). Out of the rankings until the line is re-drawn round the bend and re-measured; the profile is shown as measured. Peter 2026-09-15 (aerial): "seems identical" — the attempted redraw is rejected, the published line stands and the page stays listed.
Measured, not vetted. This page records what the laser record shows about the road's shape — nothing more. Nobody has necessarily ridden or inspected this road for the survey, and a page here is not a recommendation and no guarantee that the road is open, surfaced, rideable or safe. Gates, private sections, missing rights of way and hazards do not show up in elevation data. Check access and conditions on the ground and make your own judgment.

Profile
The map, profile and gradient chart share one position — move your pointer over them and the marker follows. Colors are the gradient bands; the shaded span is the steepest 25 m. Any 25 m figure is good to about a point either way (why).
