"Blackhill Glencairn side" is the name of the Strava section. Constant rise, you have to go up to get back from the side of the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic. Relatively busy road on which there is again a side strip. Not too steep ascent, but retires. Especially if you already have a few kilometers in your legs and is on the way back.
