Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 4.0 km, no steep climbing, comes down 16% for 230 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 4.3 km, climbs 16% for 230 m near the end, no steep descents.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.2 km at 10%+, 0.2 km of it 15%+) 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 0.0–1.8, from 141 m to 73 m.
