Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 200 m midway, no steep descents.
Clockwise: Easy first 3.7 km, no steep climbing, comes down 20% for 200 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+, 0.4 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 5.0–6.4, from 148 m to 82 m.
