How this is calculated
Stage boundaries follow the classic guidebook division for each route — the same seed the companion app plans with.
Elevations are curated, guidebook-style altitudes for every village on the route; profiles connect them in sequence. Ascent and descent sum the village-to-village changes plus a small per-kilometre undulation allowance, which lands the totals where published guides put them.
The difficulty rating weighs distance, climbing and descent the way legs do — a long flat day can outrank a short climb. Five levels, from gentle to epic; the top mark is reserved for the genuinely brutal days.
On the Francés, the browser follows the main route through Villadangos del Páramo where some guides route via Villar de Mazarife. Its Pyrenees day is the one that sets the top difficulty mark, at ≈ 1,385 m of climbing.
