Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 30% for 270 m midway, comes down 17% for 470 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 17% for 470 m early on, comes down 30% for 270 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1 km at 10%+, 1 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 6.1–7.1, from 1441 m to 1590 m.
