Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 22% for 630 m early on, comes down 18% for 1150 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.4 km, climbs 18% for 1150 m midway, comes down 22% for 630 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.4 km at 10%+, 1.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 4.4–6.5, from 638 m to 954 m.
