Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.4 km, climbs 14% for 900 m midway, no steep descents.
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 14% for 900 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.4–7.9, from 906 m to 1035 m.
