Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 24% for 530 m early on, comes down 21% for 280 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 21% for 280 m midway, comes down 24% for 530 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 km at 10%+, 0.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 1.4–4.0, from 583 m to 371 m.
