Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 17% for 220 m early on, comes down 13% for 600 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.3 km, climbs 13% for 600 m midway, comes down 17% for 220 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 4.8–6.1, from 910 m to 1032 m.
