Do not underestimate this climb. The profile just shows the average, but at the beginning you are over 20%, and after a short flat in the small village, you start climbing again, first at about 10%, but the you turn right and it goes over 25% on a road made of concrete slabs for traction. It gets a bit easier over time, but still very hard. The climb here finishes where the paved road finishes, but you still have a kilometer of gravel, doable on a racing bike ( I did it both up and downhill) and just as steep as the rest.
