Epic Cols: The World's Greatest Climbs. Captured.

Iconic climbs such as Alpe d’Huez and Stelvio Pass have stood firmly at the top as the World’s Greatest Cycling Climbs. And, for good reason.

Epic Cols is a collection of the most beautiful cycling climbs – its mission is to scour the world searching for cycling perfection and challenge the Greats.

The Valle Nevado inspired this project and is the epitome of the Epic Cols’ mission. It is a world-class climb with 58 switchbacks in 29 kilometres reaching 3000m altitude that most have not heard of. See the article.

The hunting has already begun, and the collection will always be evolving. Please subscribe to receive notification of climbs newly added.

It's going to be EPIC. Glad you can join us!

Valle Nevado

The Valle Nevado, Chile. 58 switchbacks, 3 valleys and when you reach the summit the Andes are still 2700m above you. A world class climb and the reason Epic Cols started.

Col De La Bonette

A mythical mountain close to the border of Italy this climb has many sets of joyous switchbacks and the Cime de la Bonnete looks otherworldly.

Colle Del Nivolet

This site doesn't rank climbs. But if it did this would be the world’s best climb. Incredibly pretty, a climb which will test anyones legs and more switchbacks than you can count. Epic.

Col Du Galiber

(Col du Télégraphe)

A huge part of the Tour de France's history, and firmly regarded as one of the world's best climbs. There is only one word to summarise Galibier – 'iconic'.
