Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.9 km, climbs 14% for 480 m midway, comes down 12% for 420 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 12% for 420 m early on, comes down 14% for 480 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 3.9–6.5, from 929 m to 1122 m.
