Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 6.8 km, climbs 15% for 500 m midway, comes down 21% for 570 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 5.3 km, climbs 21% for 570 m midway, comes down 15% for 500 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.3–8.2, from 918 m to 1112 m.
