Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 11% for 270 m early on, comes down 19% for 680 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 19% for 680 m midway, comes down 11% for 270 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 5.3–9.5, from 1698 m to 1421 m.
