Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 17% for 600 m early on, comes down 15% for 320 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.6 km, climbs 15% for 320 m midway, comes down 17% for 600 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.6 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 1.7–3.0, from 105 m to 247 m.
