Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 12% for 380 m early on, no steep descents.
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 12% for 380 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–1.1, from 226 m to 302 m.
