Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 330 m early on, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.6 km, no steep climbing, comes down 13% for 330 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 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 descent: km 71.7–74.4, from 166 m to 61 m.
