Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.6 km, climbs 21% for 430 m early on, comes down 13% for 430 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.5 km, climbs 13% for 430 m midway, comes down 21% for 430 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.8 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.6 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 4.8–7.5, from 461 m to 270 m.
