You either hate it or love it. This climb is ridiculously steep and leads up to a beautiful castle. It's not allowed for cars, so you have the whole width of the road for yourself. You'll need it as you'll be weaving across just to keep forward momentum. This climb is completely optional on any route, because there are gentler alternatives. Only cyclists that want to test themselves go up here voluntarily.
