Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 8.1 km, no steep climbing, comes down 11% for 350 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 11% for 350 m early on, no steep descents.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 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 14.1–16.7, from 257 m to 156 m.
