Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 19% for 200 m early on, comes down 16% for 450 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.0 km, climbs 16% for 450 m midway, comes down 19% for 200 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+, 0.4 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 1.0–2.4, from 1 m to 126 m.
