Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 4.5 km, climbs 21% for 570 m midway, comes down 13% for 280 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.1 km, climbs 13% for 280 m midway, comes down 21% for 570 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 0.6 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 4.5–8.3, from 528 m to 794 m.
