Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.5 km, no steep climbing, comes down 15% for 200 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 47.3 km, climbs 15% for 200 m near the end, no steep descents.
Better clockwise: 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 54.4–55.9, from 252 m to 185 m.
