Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 24% for 1400 m midway, comes down 14% for 520 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 14% for 520 m midway, comes down 24% for 1400 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.7 km at 10%+, 1.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.3–8.4, from 1138 m to 1535 m.
