Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.7 km, no steep climbing, comes down 16% for 250 m early on.
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 250 m near the end, no steep descents.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.5 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 descent: km 1.7–3.1, from 322 m to 212 m.
