Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.0 km, climbs 13% for 530 m early on, comes down 17% for 700 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.4 km, climbs 17% for 700 m near the end, comes down 13% for 530 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.7 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 descent: km 1.7–4.4, from 592 m to 401 m.
