The climb is gradual in terms of gradient. Take care when planning your itinerary: the road is a dead end, so it's essential to make a U-turn.

L'ascension est progressive au niveau des pourcentages. Attention également à l'itinéraire à prévoir : la route est un cul de sac, il est impératif d'effectuer un demi tour.
