Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.8 km, no steep climbing, comes down 21% for 220 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.3 km, climbs 21% for 220 m near the end, no steep descents.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 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 21.4–23.6, from 520 m to 415 m.
