Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 19% for 200 m early on, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 19% for 200 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.2 km at 10%+, 0.2 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 descent: km 2.7–3.6, from 61 m to 5 m.
