23-BAUDINARD-SUR-VERDON-MILLAU

The mission commences in the vicinity of Baudinard-sur-Verdon, France, traversing a varied corridor characterized by rolling hills and scattered woodlands. The route concludes near Millau, France, after navigating a significant stretch of terrain that gradually transitions to more open, expansive landscapes. Technically, this route presents as a significant grinder. Operators can expect substantial elevation gain early on, indicative of a punishing climb that demands sustained effort. Following this, the terrain offers periods of flowing descent, interspersed with moderate-speed sectors, before a final, protracted ascent toward the objective. This route is a testament to the fact that even in France, gravity eventually wins.
