Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.2 km, climbs 13% for 1080 m midway, comes down 15% for 820 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.2 km, climbs 15% for 820 m early on, comes down 13% for 1080 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.2 km at 10%+, 1.1 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.6 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 3.2–8.8, from 45 m to 551 m.
