Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 1.4 km, climbs 18% for 300 m near the end, comes down 13% for 450 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 13% for 450 m midway, comes down 18% for 300 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 km at 10%+, 0.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 3.0–4.6, from 80 m to 177 m.
