Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 25% for 220 m near the end, no steep descents.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.5 km, no steep climbing, comes down 25% for 220 m early on.
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 3.8–4.6, from 164 m to 90 m.
