Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.1 km, climbs 18% for 350 m midway, comes down 13% for 200 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.8 km, climbs 13% for 200 m near the end, comes down 18% for 350 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 3.1–3.8, from 100 m to 179 m.
