Which way round
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 18% for 3250 m early on.
Clockwise: Climbs 18% for 3250 m early on, no steep descents.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (4.2 km at 10%+, 3.3 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 climb: km 0.1–5.3, from 1153 m to 1930 m.
