Which way round

Anticlockwise: Easy first 17.8 km, climbs 21% for 230 m near the end, comes down 13% for 550 m near the end.

Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 550 m early on, comes down 21% for 230 m early on.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main climb: km 0.0–2.9, from 56 m to 238 m.
