Which way round
Clockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 21% for 900 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.9 km, climbs 21% for 900 m midway, no steep descents.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 1.1 km of it 15%+) 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 1.9–4.4, from 1115 m to 1418 m.
