Which way round

Clockwise: Easy first 1.0 km, climbs 15% for 230 m midway, comes down 15% for 470 m near the end.

Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 470 m early on, comes down 15% for 230 m midway.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 4.9–6.7, from 550 m to 444 m.
