Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 13% for 370 m early on, comes down 12% for 200 m near the end.

Clockwise: Climbs 12% for 200 m early on, comes down 13% for 370 m near the end.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+) and come down 0.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main climb: km 0.0–2.8, from 10 m to 249 m.
