Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 450 m early on, comes down 20% for 430 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 430 m early on, comes down 13% for 450 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.7 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 3.6–6.5, from 498 m to 330 m.
