Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 300 m midway, comes down 16% for 480 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 16% for 480 m early on, comes down 13% for 300 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 km at 10%+, 0.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–0.7, from 13 m to 96 m.
