Which way round

Anticlockwise: Easy first 9.3 km, climbs 13% for 300 m near the end, comes down 16% for 400 m early on.

Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 400 m near the end, comes down 13% for 300 m early on.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 1.9–4.3, from 419 m to 275 m.
