About Puy Mary

The Pas de Peyrol (1589 m) at the Puy Mary is the highest road in the Massif Central. A 2020 Tour de France stage finished here. The last section up to the top is very steep.

In rampida you ride the route exactly as it lies on the road: the gradient reaches your trainer metre by metre, the scenery is built from real elevation data and OpenStreetMap. A pacer group can pull you along, and next time you race your own ghost.
