Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 5.4 km, climbs 17% for 1000 m midway, comes down 14% for 650 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.5 km, climbs 14% for 650 m near the end, comes down 17% for 1000 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.2 km at 10%+, 1 km of it 15%+) and come down 1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.4–8.4, from 375 m to 666 m.
