This one’s tricky because the descending is a little too steep with the road getting very narrow. You’ll find yourself heavily breaking whilst trying to make sure you stay within the road. Personally, it doesn’t feel safe for me on the decent, and there’s a section where I had to get off to make sure a car was not coming around the corner, since, as you get higher, you are on higher ground (no fence below). Am I glad I did it? Yeah, it was nice practice for starters, but since it felt too narrow and steep, I wouldn't go back. Just be safe if you go. Overall, the climbs are decent, and you will get a few steep ones that will burn. The first, middle, and last climb (among them all) will be worth it. Solid 4/10 for climbing.
