Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 1000 m early on, comes down 14% for 1800 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.1 km, climbs 14% for 1800 m midway, comes down 16% for 1000 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.4 km at 10%+, 1.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 2.6 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 4.7–10.8, from 1420 m to 838 m.
