Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 14% for 300 m early on, comes down 15% for 880 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.3 km, climbs 15% for 880 m early on, comes down 14% for 300 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+, 0.9 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 1.3–3.0, from 121 m to 271 m.
