Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 2.7 km, climbs 13% for 460 m midway, comes down 17% for 400 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 8.8 km, climbs 17% for 400 m near the end, comes down 13% for 460 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) 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 descent: km 0.0–2.7, from 619 m to 432 m.
