Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.4 km, climbs 14% for 730 m midway, comes down 16% for 1030 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 1030 m early on, comes down 14% for 730 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 km at 10%+, 1 km of it 15%+) and come down 1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 1.1–4.2, from 450 m to 223 m.
