Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 1.3 km, climbs 15% for 280 m midway, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 15% for 280 m midway.
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 2.0–3.7, from 92 m to 11 m.
