Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 5.4 km, climbs 16% for 730 m midway, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 16% for 730 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.7 km of it 15%+) 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 5.4–7.6, from 109 m to 264 m.
