Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.4 km, climbs 14% for 480 m midway, no steep descents.
Clockwise: Easy first 6.8 km, no steep climbing, comes down 14% for 480 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 km at 10%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 4.4–5.7, from 588 m to 684 m.
