Climb Calculator
Calculate climb difficulty metrics: average gradient, VAM, and category ratings for mountain passes and climbs.
Coming soon.
This tool will help you analyze climbs by calculating:
- Average gradient — Overall steepness of the climb
- Maximum gradient — Steepest sustained section
- VAM (Vertical ascent per hour) — Climbing speed metric
- Category rating — Tour de France-style climb classification (Cat 4 to HC)
Enter distance, elevation gain, and time to get detailed climb analysis.
