Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.9 km, climbs 12% for 380 m near the end, no steep descents.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.7 km, no steep climbing, comes down 12% for 380 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 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 4.1–4.9, from 157 m to 94 m.
