Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 17% for 450 m near the end, comes down 15% for 650 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+, 0.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 1.0–4.7, from 990 m to 1229 m.
