Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 7.5 km, climbs 17% for 440 m near the end, comes down 12% for 280 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 12% for 280 m early on, comes down 17% for 440 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 5.3–7.5, from 542 m to 407 m.
