Which way round

Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 650 m midway, comes down 19% for 700 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.1 km at 10%+, 1.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.7–9.1, from 1048 m to 1509 m.
