Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.9 km, climbs 17% for 330 m near the end, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 17% for 330 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) 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 2.3–3.9, from 206 m to 135 m.
