Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 25% for 600 m midway, comes down 19% for 370 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.4 km, climbs 19% for 370 m midway, comes down 25% for 600 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.4 km at 10%+, 0.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.8 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 4.0–7.2, from 505 m to 244 m.
