A repeating Ardennes circuit around Vianden
Eislek Gravel asks riders to repeat the same climbing pattern on Sunday: the cobbled ramp to Vianden Castle, a sustained forest climb, and a descent to the Our valley. The course demands repeatable climbing strength, controlled early pacing, and confident handling on cobbles and forest gravel so the final lap remains steady.
At 9-13 hours per week, this twelve-week plan is for riders chasing a result. Long climbing efforts and repeated-climb sessions prepare you to stay with a strong group, descend forest gravel smoothly, and climb with purpose late in the race.
INSIDE THE COMPETE PLAN — 9–13 HR/WK
Includes zone-tailored structured rides for your devices, built-in strength with video walkthroughs, heat-training protocols for racing in the hot stuff, peloton skills workouts, weekly coach notes + the Gravel Grit mental program, and nutrition and hydration guidance.
The Complete Eislek Gravel Guide — the training, the tactics, the gear and race day, explained simply and clearly: what to do, when to do it, and why it works.
