Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.7 km, climbs 14% for 200 m near the end, comes down 11% for 370 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 7.8 km, climbs 11% for 370 m near the end, comes down 14% for 200 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+) 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 9.3–13.5, from 791 m to 1008 m.
