As mentioned a good surface but can be slippery in places. It's on a curve so the other side is not visible and has some ventilation shafts for a little light but not much. Go around in heavy rain unless you don't mind wading through up to your crank.

Surface in tunnel is good, maybe a little wet but passable for gravel bike unlike the alternative path. Just keep pedalling and aim for the light.
