Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 15% for 290 m midway, comes down 12% for 580 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.0 km, climbs 12% for 580 m midway, comes down 15% for 290 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.6 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 6.9–9.8, from 896 m to 748 m.
