Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 320 m early on, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 16% for 320 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 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 0.0–2.6, from 99 m to 275 m.
