Which way round

Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.4 km, climbs 14% for 1030 m midway, comes down 17% for 2500 m near the end.

Clockwise: Climbs 17% for 2500 m early on, comes down 14% for 1030 m midway.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (3 km at 10%+, 3 km of it 15%+) and come down 2.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 5.2–10.7, from 831 m to 298 m.
