Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.6 km, climbs 17% for 370 m early on, no steep descents.
Clockwise: Easy first 8.9 km, no steep climbing, comes down 17% for 370 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+, 0.4 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 3.6–4.6, from 723 m to 816 m.
