Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 3.1 km, climbs 14% for 400 m near the end, comes down 12% for 450 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.1 km, climbs 12% for 450 m midway, comes down 14% for 400 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 0.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 0.4–4.1, from 944 m to 713 m.
