Which way round
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 16% for 280 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 16% for 280 m early on, no steep descents.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) 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 0.0–1.8, from 146 m to 286 m.
