Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 750 m midway, comes down 15% for 520 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 520 m midway, comes down 16% for 750 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.2 km at 10%+, 1.2 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 7.5–10.7, from 917 m to 688 m.
