Probably one of the most traveled climbs in Rio. Not specifically because of the slope itself, but whether you want to climb to Sumaré, Paineiras or to the top of Cristo Redentor, you will always have to go over this little climb first.

Probably one of the most traveled climbs in Rio. Not specifically because of the slope itself, but whether you want to climb to Sumaré, Paineiras or to the top of Cristo Redentor, you will always have to go over this little climb first. There are some other options available, but given that Rua Alice is the only option of these without cobblestones, this road is the clear preference of local cyclists.

The climb itself is not very special, but is a great warm-up for the harder climbs that follow. Some nice wide hairpin turns and some street art to admire along the way, with relatively mild percentages. The nastiest bit follows when you turn right just before the tunnel of 'Rio Comprido' where it goes up a few hundred meters at 8％.

Waarschijnlijk één van de meest bereden beklimmingen van Rio. Niet specifiek vanwege de helling zelf, maar of je nu wilt klimmen naar Sumaré, Paineiras of naar de top van Cristo Redentor, je zult altijd eerst over dit klimmetje moeten. Er zijn enkele andere opties mogelijk, maar gezien Rua Alice daarvan de enige optie zonder kasseien is, heeft deze weg de duidelijke voorkeur van de lokale fietser.

De klim zelf is niet heel bijzonder, maar is een prima warming-up voor de zwaardere klimmen die erna volgen. Een paar mooie brede haarspeldbochten en wat streetart om te bewonderen onderweg, met relatief milde percentages. Het vervelendste stukje volgt als je vlak voor de tunnel van 'Rio Comprido' naar rechts afslaat, waar het een paar honderde meters aan 8％ omhoog gaat.
