Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 16% for 630 m early on, comes down 14% for 870 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 14% for 870 m midway, comes down 16% for 630 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2 km at 10%+, 1.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–4.3, from 460 m to 885 m.
