Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 5.2 km, climbs 19% for 800 m near the end, comes down 15% for 900 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.1 km, climbs 15% for 900 m near the end, comes down 19% for 800 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.6 km at 10%+, 1.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 0.0–4.5, from 810 m to 522 m.
