Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 18% for 630 m early on, comes down 16% for 950 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 2.9 km, climbs 16% for 950 m midway, comes down 18% for 630 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.2 km at 10%+, 1.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.6 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 2.9–4.9, from 45 m to 260 m.
