Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 200 m early on, comes down 14% for 500 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 2.5 km, climbs 14% for 500 m midway, comes down 15% for 200 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 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 2.5–3.6, from 125 m to 215 m.
