Nice uphill to ride if you are nearby or planning to do a long ascend training.
Road quality is a very bad thought. It's not an issue while climbing, but you must be careful while descending.
Strava segment starts from the gate and has approx 9.6 km and 739 m ascent.
Enclosed is a photo of the road, this is the "better quality" section.
