Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 22% for 620 m midway, comes down 23% for 290 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 23% for 290 m early on, comes down 22% for 620 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.4 km at 10%+, 0.9 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 2.5–5.0, from 767 m to 573 m.
