Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 5.0 km, climbs 14% for 530 m early on, comes down 11% for 250 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 11% for 250 m near the end, comes down 14% for 530 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+) 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 6.9–9.0, from 1153 m to 1296 m.
