Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.4 km, climbs 15% for 420 m near the end, comes down 13% for 420 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 7.6 km, climbs 13% for 420 m near the end, comes down 15% for 420 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 7.2–7.9, from 74 m to 157 m.
