Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.6 km, climbs 21% for 200 m midway, no steep descents.
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 21% for 200 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.2 km at 10%+, 0.2 km of it 15%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 3.6–4.1, from 129 m to 184 m.
