Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 800 m early on, comes down 16% for 350 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.6 km, climbs 16% for 350 m early on, comes down 16% for 800 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.8 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 0.0–1.9, from 374 m to 528 m.
