Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 18% for 200 m midway, no steep descents.

Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 18% for 200 m early on.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.2 km at 10%+, 0.2 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 descent: km 7.9–8.5, from 1080 m to 1040 m.
