Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.7 km, climbs 19% for 400 m near the end, comes down 14% for 470 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 5.3 km, climbs 14% for 470 m near the end, comes down 19% for 400 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 0.8 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 3.7–7.5, from 618 m to 823 m.
