Which way round
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 16% for 400 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.3 km, climbs 16% for 400 m early on, no steep descents.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+, 0.4 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 2.3–4.3, from 131 m to 269 m.
