Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 400 m midway, comes down 18% for 250 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 18% for 250 m early on, comes down 13% for 400 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.2 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 2.6–5.1, from 129 m to 333 m.
