Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.1 km, climbs 12% for 520 m near the end, comes down 14% for 680 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.9 km, climbs 14% for 680 m near the end, comes down 12% for 520 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.7 km at 10%+, 0.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.9–9.0, from 978 m to 1322 m.
