Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 23% for 910 m early on, comes down 22% for 2590 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 22% for 2590 m early on, comes down 23% for 910 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.6 km at 10%+, 2.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.8 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–3.2, from 478 m to 1068 m.
