The 45 most prominent climbs in Canada. Color is category; the two ringed marks are the longest and the steepest.

Canada rewards riders who chase altitude and open horizons. With 10 catalogued climbs and a highest summit reaching 2,214 metres, the country trades brutal steepness for long, breathable ascents that unspool through mountain corridors and forested valleys. None of these climbs carry an hors catégorie rating, so the appeal here is rhythm and endurance rather than raw gradient — steady efforts that let you settle into a cadence and watch the landscape climb with you toward thin, cool air.

The marquee ascents read like a tour of the high country. Highwood Pass tops the list as the loftiest paved road, while Kootenay Pass and Sinclair Pass carve their own memorable lines through the ranges. Further afield, Heckman Pass, Railroad Pass, and Allison Pass round out a collection built for cyclists who prefer their suffering long and their summits earned. Together they make Canada a destination for patient climbers who savour the slow burn to the top.
