Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.5 km, climbs 13% for 350 m midway, comes down 14% for 430 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 14% for 430 m early on, comes down 13% for 350 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–0.9, from 54 m to 139 m.
