Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.6 km, climbs 16% for 820 m near the end, comes down 18% for 1400 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 3.1 km, climbs 18% for 1400 m near the end, comes down 16% for 820 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.4 km at 10%+, 1.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 0.0–3.1, from 1389 m to 1116 m.
