Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 1.6 km, climbs 21% for 250 m early on, comes down 14% for 320 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.6 km, climbs 14% for 320 m near the end, comes down 21% for 250 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 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 descent: km 1.3–3.6, from 181 m to 99 m.
