Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 13.4 km, climbs 13% for 680 m midway, comes down 17% for 450 m early on.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 32.2 km, climbs 17% for 450 m near the end, comes down 13% for 680 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.1 km at 10%+, 0.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 35.0–36.9, from 356 m to 196 m.
