Clockwise: Climbs 21% for 1010 m early on, comes down 25% for 620 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.7 km at 10%+, 2.5 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 4.2–11.3, from 1002 m to 364 m.
