Using the Climb feature

The Dash locates climbs within your courses and displays additional information to help guide you through each climb. To enable the Climb feature, go to Settings > Dash settings > Maps and courses > Climb and choose from:

• All climbs: Display climb notifications and the climb page for climbs of all sizes (minimum ascent: 15 m or 50 ft).
• Medium and above: Display climb notifications for medium and large climbs (minimum ascent: 35 m or 115 ft).
• Large only: Display climb notifications for large climbs only (minimum ascent: 80 m or 262.5 ft).
• Disabled: Do not display climb notifications or the climb page.

Climb size is determined as a factor of both distance and ascent for each climb. The minimum distance for any climb is 400 meters or 0.25 miles with a minimum average gradient of 3%.

Climb laps

The Dash can start a new lap at the start and the end of each climb. To enable or disable climb laps, go to Settings > Dash settings > Maps and courses > Climb laps.
