Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 31% for 930 m midway, comes down 31% for 2060 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.3 km, climbs 31% for 2060 m early on, comes down 31% for 930 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.7 km at 10%+, 2.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 2.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 2.3–4.7, from 1788 m to 2415 m.
