Monte Zoncolan

At an average cycling pace, Monte Zoncolan takes between 45 and 63 minutes to complete. The 10.5km climb with its 11.5% average gradient means riders with a higher FTP can push the pace significantly. In Climb Quest, your actual time depends on your real power output.

A moderate FTP of around 202W (watts) is a reasonable starting point for Monte Zoncolan. However, the climb has sections reaching 22% gradient, so a higher FTP will make those sections much more manageable. Beginners can still attempt it — just at a slower pace.

The maximum gradient on Monte Zoncolan reaches 22%, which is significantly steeper than the 11.5% average. These sections require the most power and are where riders typically need to shift to their easiest gears. Climb Quest shows the full gradient profile so you can plan where to conserve energy.

Yes — Monte Zoncolan is available in Climb Quest for any FTMS-compatible smart trainer (Wahoo KICKR, Tacx NEO, Elite Suito, and more). The app automatically adjusts resistance to match the real-world gradient at every point of the 10.5km climb, giving you an authentic simulation of riding outdoors in Italy.
