Anticlockwise: Climbs 12% for 200 m early on, comes down 13% for 400 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+) and come down 0.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–1.8, from 454 m to 521 m.
