Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 6.8 km, climbs 13% for 200 m midway, comes down 11% for 650 m near the end.
Clockwise: Easy first 2.8 km, climbs 11% for 650 m early on, comes down 13% for 200 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 2.8–5.1, from 131 m to 307 m.
