Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 410 m near the end, comes down 20% for 870 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 870 m early on, comes down 13% for 410 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+, 0.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.7 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.5–1.7, from 935 m to 1128 m.
