Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 870 m early on, comes down 14% for 620 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 14% for 620 m early on, comes down 20% for 870 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.8 km at 10%+, 0.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.9 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 4.2–7.3, from 944 m to 585 m.
