Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 23% for 2900 m early on, comes down 26% for 1120 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 26% for 1120 m midway, comes down 23% for 2900 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.9 km at 10%+, 2.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 2.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 3.0–10.2, from 2030 m to 1301 m.
