Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 41% for 380 m near the end, comes down 22% for 1130 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 22% for 1130 m early on, comes down 41% for 380 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.4 km at 10%+, 2.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 4.9–8.9, from 869 m to 436 m.
