Absolutely brutal climb, only for the real climbers. Start !is immediately super steep, reaching 15% before the first hairpin and you wont see much lower for a while. The bends and hairpins only make the road steeper, and the road condition doesn't help either. After about 2km, you exit a hairpin and have an easier section that feels flat, though it is still 9%. Soon after you exit the shade of the trees and are almost done, though if it's a hot day, this section will hurt a lot.
