Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 1.7 km, no steep climbing, comes down 12% for 630 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.5 km, climbs 12% for 630 m near the end, 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 3.5–5.2, from 90 m to 157 m.
