Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 4.2 km, climbs 18% for 300 m near the end, comes down 11% for 280 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.1 km, climbs 11% for 280 m near the end, comes down 18% for 300 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 0.0–2.4, from 145 m to 18 m.
