Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 24% for 830 m early on, comes down 16% for 2650 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 2650 m early on, comes down 24% for 830 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (7 km at 10%+, 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 4.2–12.0, from 830 m to 1567 m.
