Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 16% for 1510 m early on, comes down 20% for 770 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 3.4 km, climbs 20% for 770 m midway, comes down 16% for 1510 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.9 km at 10%+, 1.6 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 18.4–22.5, from 738 m to 271 m.
