Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.3 km, climbs 21% for 1700 m midway, comes down 19% for 470 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.5 km, climbs 19% for 470 m near the end, comes down 21% for 1700 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.5 km at 10%+, 2.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.7 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 5.3–9.3, from 1667 m to 2236 m.
