Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 23% for 430 m early on, comes down 26% for 500 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 26% for 500 m early on, comes down 23% for 430 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.8 km at 10%+, 0.8 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 6.6–9.5, from 398 m to 116 m.
