Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 600 m early on, comes down 16% for 350 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 350 m early on, comes down 20% for 600 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 1.1–2.8, from 1152 m to 988 m.
