Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 13% for 920 m early on, comes down 14% for 220 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 14% for 220 m early on, comes down 13% for 920 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+) and come down 0.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 1.7–4.5, from 177 m to 13 m.
