Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 18% for 1830 m early on, comes down 18% for 770 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.3 km, climbs 18% for 770 m midway, comes down 18% for 1830 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.8 km at 10%+, 1.8 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–3.6, from 1099 m to 1441 m.
