Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 58.8 km, climbs 17% for 250 m near the end, comes down 15% for 220 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 10.5 km, climbs 15% for 220 m midway, comes down 17% for 250 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 60.6–62.2, from 112 m to 42 m.
