Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 2.1 km, climbs 13% for 430 m midway, comes down 15% for 720 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 720 m early on, comes down 13% for 430 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.8 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–2.1, from 109 m to 255 m.
