Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.1 km, climbs 16% for 250 m midway, comes down 18% for 830 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 3.3 km, climbs 18% for 830 m near the end, comes down 16% for 250 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.8 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 3.3–5.4, from 686 m to 880 m.
