Which way round

As mapped: Easy first 5.2 km, no steep climbing, comes down 13% for 370 m midway.

Reversed: Easy first 5.6 km, climbs 13% for 370 m midway, no steep descents.

Better reversed: you climb the steeper side (0.4 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 3.0–5.6, from 293 m to 212 m.
