Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.7 km, climbs 12% for 320 m midway, comes down 17% for 970 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.8 km, climbs 17% for 970 m near the end, comes down 12% for 320 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.5 km at 10%+, 1 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.8 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 19.0–21.5, from 194 m to 438 m.
