Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 11% for 600 m midway, comes down 15% for 900 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 900 m early on, comes down 11% for 600 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.2 km at 10%+, 1.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–2.7, from 796 m to 1045 m.
