Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 13% for 230 m midway, comes down 21% for 260 m near the end.

Clockwise: Climbs 21% for 260 m early on, comes down 13% for 230 m midway.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.3 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 5.9–7.9, from 792 m to 930 m.
