Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 2.9 km, climbs 14% for 450 m early on, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 14% for 450 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 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 6.7–10.2, from 258 m to 145 m.
