Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.0 km, climbs 18% for 500 m midway, comes down 12% for 200 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.5 km, climbs 12% for 200 m early on, comes down 18% for 500 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 km at 10%+, 0.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 3.0–4.3, from 1450 m to 1589 m.
