Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 2.9 km, climbs 18% for 200 m near the end, comes down 19% for 350 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.9 km, climbs 19% for 350 m midway, comes down 18% for 200 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.4 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 climb: km 2.9–5.9, from 430 m to 621 m.
