Which way round

Clockwise: Climbs 14% for 370 m early on, comes down 18% for 900 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 0.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 1.3–4.0, from 69 m to 302 m.
