Which way round

Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 14% for 350 m early on.

Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.4 km, climbs 14% for 350 m near the end, no steep descents.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 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 0.0–1.4, from 215 m to 128 m.
