How do you describe up down road?

I am confused which word to use. There is one word to describe it. Can I say it is a zig-zag road?

"Undulate" is often used for roads that go up and down, while 'zig-zag' is used for roads that repeatedly bend to the left and right.

The road undulates for three miles before descending into a valley.

I enjoy an undulating road while driving, but not while cycling.
