Which way round

Clockwise: Easy first 2.3 km, climbs 25% for 900 m near the end, comes down 11% for 380 m early on.

Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.8 km, climbs 11% for 380 m near the end, comes down 25% for 900 m early on.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+, 0.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main climb: km 2.3–4.1, from 1292 m to 1507 m.
