Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 1100 m early on, comes down 18% for 930 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 18% for 930 m early on, comes down 13% for 1100 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.2 km at 10%+, 2.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 0.0–4.6, from 2003 m to 2419 m.
