Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 2.0 km, climbs 16% for 400 m early on, comes down 19% for 650 m midway.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.3 km, climbs 19% for 650 m early on, comes down 16% for 400 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.2 km at 10%+, 1.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 5.0–9.3, from 585 m to 236 m.
