Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.8 km, climbs 13% for 620 m midway, no steep descents.
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 13% for 620 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 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 3.8–5.2, from 882 m to 1013 m.
