Alpe du Zwift prize list

AdZ25
Anyone reached it? What do you get - experience? how much?

When you do 25 climbs, a pop up says ā€œYou are now half way to 50.ā€

seriously?

Lol no but I had to do 26 alps for the badge.

The extra XP Points is nice, I hadn’t noticed that.

4x (Gloves x3, Helmet x1). Would be nice to have a few other items in the wheel of fun (water bottle… Tron Bike 2, lol).

I did find that the Cervello P5 + Zipp 808’s shaved exactly 3 minutes off my time with the Tarmac Pro & Enve 3.4’s. I’m going to try the Tarmac with the 808’s next and see what the difference is.

Zwift did a great job on this Route, I love the Stages, and the ability to monitor live your last PR on each one. I would personally like a Route that just starts at the bottom (especially now that the speed on the Jungle Route is so much slower).

Just did the Alpe du Zwift in under an hour and did not see any wheel prize or anything just those banners that say you got a pair of gloves… No wheels!! would be nice to know what is going on…

Hi @Vicky_Lyles,

Those prizes are at random, Gloves or Helmet or wheels.

Wish I had known that before. I was on a mission for wheels…LOL guess I will keep climbing to my wheels and tron bike… Thanks…

I hope you get it soon. I got mine the 5th time up. One of my friend only after 10 or 11 can’t remember.

Good luck.

Is anybody else having issues with the power ups? I have reached the mark before the timer expires several times on the 2nd and 3rd power ups and haven’t gotten them.

Regarding the wheel of fortune, I think its not completely random, seems like it is set up so you can only get gloves or helmet on the first few tries. I’ve read all the comments and didn’t see anyone that had gotten the wheels in the first 5. Ives gone up 6 times, and so far; 4 gloves, 2 helmets…

Toss in mine for posterity.

Helmet 1st time.
Gloves 2nd time.
Exp 3rd trip up.
Wheels 4th time.

One thing i couldn’t find an answer for yet: does doing a workout or training while climbing AdZ somehow effect the achievements or badges?
Also, there seems to be no ingame tracking of how many times i did the climb, that would be nice to have.

As long as your workout end before you get to the top you will get the spinner wheel.

You can look on strava there is a segment for the Alpe du Zwift. Alpe du Zwift (Zwift Insider verified)

got the wheels second time :rofl:

Hi Gerrie, you will get the spinner wheel also if the workout it doesnā€˜t finished. You earn the xp gift also.

So that changed. :crazy_face:

Seems random to me; been up two times, gloves the first & wheels the second… Go figure

Whatever you do, don’t carry a power-up you haven’t used through the banner… you won’t get the wheel to spin. Been up 4 times and that cost me a shot at shoes.

You want to count yourself lucky that Zwift now has lots of hilly routes. When the challenge was first released it was far harder to get as you’d do a lot less climbing.
