Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 4.5 km, climbs 29% for 800 m midway, comes down 13% for 550 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 13% for 550 m near the end, comes down 29% for 800 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 1.1 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 4.5–8.6, from 345 m to 783 m.
