It's easy and suitable for everyone who feels like riding uphill. It's a circular tour, of equal difficulty in both ways.
The ascent from South to North is slightly shorter and more constant.
On the other hand, the ascent from North to South has two steep ascents, one at the beginning and one at the end.

It's a medium difficulty route, suitable for medium trained people.

The ascent from South to North is constant, a little bit shorter and slightly steeper.
On the other hand, the ascent from North to South has two significant ascents at the beginning and at the end but the inclines of the central part are softer.
