Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 630 m early on, comes down 14% for 350 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.8 km, climbs 14% for 350 m midway, comes down 13% for 630 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.3 km at 10%+, 0.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.8 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 2.5–7.3, from 769 m to 406 m.
