Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 43% for 1070 m near the end, comes down 17% for 1950 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 17% for 1950 m midway, comes down 43% for 1070 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (4.3 km at 10%+, 4.3 km of it 15%+) and come down 4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 3.7–8.2, from 1644 m to 1042 m.
