Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.7 km, climbs 18% for 1150 m near the end, comes down 23% for 1420 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.6 km, climbs 23% for 1420 m midway, comes down 18% for 1150 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.2 km at 10%+, 1.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 0.0–4.6, from 2426 m to 1941 m.
