Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.3 km, climbs 19% for 550 m midway, comes down 13% for 1520 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 2.6 km, climbs 13% for 1520 m early on, comes down 19% for 550 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.9 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 2.6–4.7, from 406 m to 636 m.
