Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.1 km, climbs 22% for 1250 m midway, comes down 19% for 800 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.7 km, climbs 19% for 800 m near the end, comes down 22% for 1250 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.3 km at 10%+, 1.3 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 3.1–5.0, from 1132 m to 1409 m.
