Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 7.3 km, climbs 21% for 2050 m midway, comes down 21% for 520 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.6 km, climbs 21% for 520 m near the end, comes down 21% for 2050 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (5.6 km at 10%+, 5.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 11.9–16.5, from 1262 m to 1946 m.
