A good climb especially from the north from Quernmore, this is the shorter steeper side. From the north it averages 6% for approximately 2 miles, the steep section is early on in the climb and maxes out at round 14%. From the south, after an initial ramp, it flattens to around 3% so those less fit should probably attack it from the south. If travelling north to south be careful on the decent as the road surface is questionable at times. If travelling south to north, watch the tight bends towards the bottom of the climb (areas of occasional mishap as cyclists fail to shed their speed after the decent of the steeper section into a tight right hander, some have been known the fly over the wall)

Here's a great video

On a clear day you can see down into Morecambe Bay and onto the hills of the Lake District. On a windy day you will be fighting to stay on the road. On a wet day you might want to stick to another route ;)
