Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 15% for 900 m early on, comes down 19% for 1270 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 19% for 1270 m early on, comes down 15% for 900 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.8 km at 10%+, 2.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 2.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 5.8–10.6, from 1040 m to 530 m.
