Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.4 km, climbs 16% for 670 m midway, comes down 19% for 350 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.0 km, climbs 19% for 350 m midway, comes down 16% for 670 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 1.4–2.4, from 1244 m to 1369 m.
