Which way round

Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 500 m early on, comes down 15% for 630 m midway.

Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 630 m midway, comes down 16% for 500 m near the end.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+, 0.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main climb: km 0.0–2.8, from 34 m to 225 m.
