Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.8 km, no steep climbing, comes down 13% for 280 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 13% for 280 m midway, no steep descents.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 10.7–13.2, from 17 m to 158 m.
