Which way round

Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.2 km, climbs 12% for 430 m early on, no steep descents.

Clockwise: Easy first 4.2 km, no steep climbing, comes down 12% for 430 m near the end.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 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 1.2–2.7, from 21 m to 135 m.
