Avoid if you can, it may be short, but it's brutal

This is a stiff challenge. The gradient of the narrow lane gradually increases before you get to the steepest part of the climb. That section is about 200m in length, after which there's another couple of hundred meters of around 7-10%.

I'd estimate the steep part to be around 20-25%

Narrow lane. Brilliant Views but very steep descent / climb 25-30% at Georges Delight ! Take care if wet going down.
