Which way round
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 11% for 370 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.9 km, climbs 11% for 370 m early on, no steep descents.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+) 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 5.9–7.6, from 471 m to 402 m.
