Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 330 m early on, comes down 24% for 320 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.0 km, climbs 24% for 320 m midway, comes down 13% for 330 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 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 4.0–5.9, from 1132 m to 1017 m.
