Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 12% for 400 m early on, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.5 km, no steep climbing, comes down 12% for 400 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.4 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 0.0–1.5, from 1617 m to 1722 m.
