Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 35% for 1770 m midway, comes down 20% for 920 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 920 m early on, comes down 35% for 1770 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.8 km at 10%+, 2.8 km of it 15%+) and come down 2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 6.5–8.4, from 1175 m to 1795 m.
