Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 18% for 230 m early on, comes down 14% for 250 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.9 km, climbs 14% for 250 m early on, comes down 18% for 230 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+, 0.2 km of it 15%+) 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 descent: km 5.7–7.2, from 223 m to 127 m.
