Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 15% for 200 m near the end, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.7 km, no steep climbing, comes down 15% for 200 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.2 km at 10%+, 0.2 km of it 15%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.9–3.6, from 159 m to 268 m.
