Which way round

Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 300 m early on, comes down 15% for 530 m midway.

Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.8 km, climbs 15% for 530 m midway, comes down 13% for 300 m near the end.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 km at 10%+, 0.5 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 1.8–3.7, from 1637 m to 1819 m.
