Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 430 m early on, comes down 17% for 570 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.8 km, climbs 17% for 570 m midway, comes down 16% for 430 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 km at 10%+, 1 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.8 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 1.8–4.8, from 879 m to 1141 m.
