Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.6 km, climbs 13% for 280 m midway, comes down 15% for 530 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 5.2 km, climbs 15% for 530 m near the end, comes down 13% for 280 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 km at 10%+, 0.5 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 5.2–6.4, from 974 m to 1067 m.
