Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.3 km, climbs 18% for 330 m near the end, comes down 22% for 330 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 1.8 km, climbs 22% for 330 m midway, comes down 18% for 330 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: 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 0.9–2.0, from 1046 m to 920 m.
