A great climb in my eyes as never too brutally steep, with points to recover, and some amazing views. You initially drop out of Henllan to the bottom of it but you'll not be able to carry speed as there is a sharpish left-right over a bridge. Down the gears to the farm house then it eases off for a while - swivel your head to look out to sea & back to the Clwydians - before a couple of steeper sections take you to the summit and a long descent to Bryn Rhyd yr Arian. Some stunning views up here.
