Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.7 km, climbs 14% for 300 m midway, comes down 14% for 420 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.5 km, climbs 14% for 420 m near the end, comes down 14% for 300 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 4.5–6.2, from 89 m to 236 m.
