A 96-League road climb up to Wuling, Taiwan’s highest paved mountain pass (~3,275 m). — 53 km · 2,800 m climb
What this race demands
This 53-kilometer mountain pass climb requires sustained climbing ability over 2,800 meters of elevation gain to reach an altitude of 3,275 meters.
Sustained Climbing
The route gains 2,800 meters over just 53 kilometers, requiring an exceptionally high power-to-weight ratio and continuous gradient management.
High Altitude Adaptation
Reaching Taiwan's highest paved pass at 3,275 meters exposes athletes to significant reduction in barometric pressure and oxygen availability.
Given the duration will exceed 2.5 hours for the vast majority of participants, athletes should target 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour.
