Nice climb with a few hard Ks to start. Two things to note. First, there is a point where the road splits and you see a hairpin turn to your left and another route straight ahead blocked by a gate. The correct way is through the gate, although this will force you to dismount and is not the easiest place to remount with clippless pedals. The other way is a forest road which goes no where, trust me I found out the hard way. Second, in the middle to later sections of the climb there was no traffic at all but also large chunks of rock which had fallen from the cliffs above, this was no trouble to navigate on the way but made for a more thrilling descent than would perhaps be preferable.
