Would it not work to start and end the trail at/near the edge of the property so you'd only have one switchback turn to build? Alternatively, the closer to the edges you start/end, the lower the average slope of the trail will be even if you end up with two switchback corners.
Are you going to compare the cost of building/maintaining the trail with some sort of tram system? I remember using a really nifty electric tram on a steeply-sloped golf course in Seattle a few decades ago. It had a wooden platform large enough to hold a couple of golf carts (the hill was too steep for the carts).
