Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 9.7 km, climbs 15% for 220 m near the end, comes down 16% for 270 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 5.5 km, climbs 16% for 270 m near the end, comes down 15% for 220 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.8 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 climb: km 15.1–17.0, from 289 m to 412 m.
