Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 23% for 380 m early on, comes down 18% for 400 m early on.

Clockwise: Easy first 8.3 km, climbs 18% for 400 m near the end, comes down 23% for 380 m near the end.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 6.6–9.8, from 867 m to 714 m.
