Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.5 km, climbs 17% for 190 m midway, comes down 17% for 350 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 6.9 km, climbs 17% for 350 m midway, comes down 17% for 190 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.3 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 6.9–8.2, from 287 m to 420 m.
