Since it was first added to the route in 1985 it’s the famous climb of the ‘Mur de Huy’ that has decided winner of La Flèche Wallonne each year. After a tough day in the hills of the Ardenne and a total of four ascents of this dreaded ascent it takes a mix of brute force and perfect timing to land the killer blow to defeat your rivals.
This midweek Belgian classic is all about the final ascent up the brutal 26% slopes of the legendary Mur de Huy. No other race is so dominated by a single stretch of tarmac. Flèche and the Mur are inseparable.
Victory comes down to energy management, positioning on the final climb, and launching your attack at just the right moment with legs of steel.
Returning for more in 2025 is 2023 champion Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates – XRG), the clear favourite. But even the greats can get it wrong on the Mur. Hoping to catch him off guard: Tom Pidcock (Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team), Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step), Ben O’Connor (Team Jayco AlUla), Oscar Onley (Team Picnic PostNL), and last year’s winner Stephen Williams (Israel – Premier Tech).
