Did this one because it was nicely on the way, its good climb but probably not worth a detour. Entire climb is on a quite big road, but its not too bad with cars. Very steady. The beginning is the most beautiful with the view to the town. Most tunnel are very short with one exception (but the big one is well lit inside)
