Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.7 km, climbs 14% for 250 m near the end, comes down 13% for 380 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.0 km, climbs 13% for 380 m near the end, comes down 14% for 250 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 km at 10%+, 0.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.6 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 8.3–12.2, from 740 m to 521 m.
