Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 17% for 300 m early on, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 17% for 300 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–0.7, from 546 m to 598 m.
