Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.9 km, climbs 15% for 420 m midway, comes down 12% for 500 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 5.2 km, climbs 12% for 500 m near the end, comes down 15% for 420 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) 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 12.2–14.6, from 548 m to 689 m.
