Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 2.2 km, climbs 14% for 980 m near the end, comes down 15% for 1480 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.1 km, climbs 15% for 1480 m midway, comes down 14% for 980 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.5 km at 10%+) and come down 1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 1.1–3.3, from 683 m to 900 m.
