The first part is just a false flat trough a very busy road. Once the road narrows up, the "real" climbing starts. In the few turns, the gradient reaches 13％ before slightly easing and keeping constant until the end. You can get to the other side of the mountain by taking a small gravel road, but pretty dangerous on the downhill because it's really steep
