Which way round

Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.8 km, no steep climbing, comes down 14% for 310 m midway.

Clockwise: Easy first 1.5 km, climbs 14% for 310 m midway, no steep descents.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 km at 10%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 0.0–1.5, from 101 m to 30 m.
