Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 18% for 230 m near the end, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 18% for 230 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.2 km at 10%+, 0.2 km of it 15%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 1.5–3.0, from 598 m to 639 m.
