Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.4 km, no steep climbing, comes down 15% for 330 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 7.4 km, climbs 15% for 330 m midway, no steep descents.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 9.5–11.4, from 476 m to 379 m.
