Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 320 m early on, comes down 17% for 380 m early on.
Clockwise: Climbs 17% for 380 m near the end, comes down 15% for 320 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 11.9–13.6, from 421 m to 313 m.
