Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 19% for 280 m early on, comes down 18% for 280 m near the end.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.0 km, climbs 18% for 280 m early on, comes down 19% for 280 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 4.0–8.6, from 525 m to 248 m.
