Which way round

Anticlockwise: Easy first 5.9 km, no steep climbing, comes down 17% for 220 m midway.

Clockwise: Easy first 5.7 km, climbs 17% for 220 m midway, no steep descents.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.2 km at 10%+, 0.2 km of it 15%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main climb: km 5.7–9.4, from 827 m to 992 m.
