Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 31% for 1070 m near the end, comes down 15% for 1370 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 4.0 km, climbs 15% for 1370 m midway, comes down 31% for 1070 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.5 km at 10%+, 1.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.6 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 0.8–4.7, from 2054 m to 1762 m.
