Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 15% for 950 m midway, comes down 18% for 1350 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 18% for 1350 m early on, comes down 15% for 950 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.3 km at 10%+, 1.3 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 2.7–6.4, from 1300 m to 999 m.
