Which way round
Clockwise: Easy first 6.8 km, climbs 20% for 330 m midway, comes down 14% for 630 m near the end.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.6 km, climbs 14% for 630 m early on, comes down 20% for 330 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.7 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 6.8–9.2, from 1167 m to 1303 m.
