Which way round

Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.7 km, no steep climbing, comes down 12% for 400 m midway.

Clockwise: Easy first 2.7 km, climbs 12% for 400 m midway, no steep descents.

Better clockwise: 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 climb: km 2.7–3.6, from 942 m to 1019 m.
