If anyone else is a bit anal about planning their cycling routes, I find it really helpful to look at a visual representation of altitude on maps (as a coloured relief map). I find it helpful alongside a route planner app which doesn't always seem to pick the best of routes elevation-wise largely, I think, because its waypoints are too far apart. And seeing topography from contour lines and hill-shading alone is not easy.
Anyways, I have found https://en-gb.topographic-map.com/map-cvtgt/Europe/ really useful for this. What is so great about it for me is the fact that the colour scale automatically modifies as you zoom in to provide a suitable granularity of detail for the view. |  |

I only have Garmin premium for the routes functionality.
I have done a good number of the top 100 UK cycling climbs and always find it amazing to visualise some of the climbs. |  |
