Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 22% for 300 m midway, comes down 19% for 450 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 19% for 450 m early on, comes down 22% for 300 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.7 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 0.0–1.6, from 153 m to 334 m.
