Which way round
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 16% for 300 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 3.3 km, climbs 16% for 300 m near the end, no steep descents.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) 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 3.3–5.4, from 16 m to 151 m.
