Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 11.7 km, climbs 13% for 470 m near the end, no steep descents.
Clockwise: Easy first 6.1 km, no steep climbing, comes down 13% for 470 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.3 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 11.7–17.8, from 1032 m to 1348 m.
