Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.1 km, climbs 15% for 760 m early on, comes down 17% for 430 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.8 km, climbs 17% for 430 m near the end, comes down 15% for 760 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.1 km at 10%+, 1.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.3–7.1, from 512 m to 644 m.
