Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 21% for 1520 m near the end, comes down 19% for 1250 m midway.
Clockwise: Climbs 19% for 1250 m early on, comes down 21% for 1520 m early on.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (6.9 km at 10%+, 6.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 25.6–30.5, from 820 m to 1423 m.
