Which way round

Clockwise: Easy first 4.3 km, climbs 22% for 620 m midway, comes down 18% for 750 m midway.

Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.3 km, climbs 18% for 750 m midway, comes down 22% for 620 m midway.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.5 km at 10%+, 2.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 20.9–24.2, from 565 m to 363 m.
