How hilliest relay route maps qualify

A race appears in a route-map collection only when raceindex.org has stored route geometry. Elevation, ascent and GAP values appear only when the route has enough elevation-bearing evidence for a publishable profile; unsupported signals are omitted.

Hilliest relay route map questions

What qualifies for hilliest relay route maps?

A relay race must have stored route geometry and a publishable ascent value to appear in this ranking.

Why are some mapped relay races missing from this ranking?

Mapped races can be missing an elevation-derived metric when their stored route lacks enough elevation-bearing evidence. Unsupported route metrics are omitted rather than inferred.

Which relay race leads this mapped-route ranking?

Vltava Run leads this route-map ranking with ascent 5,230 m.
