Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 28% for 1980 m early on, comes down 20% for 3750 m early on.
Clockwise: Climbs 20% for 3750 m near the end, comes down 28% for 1980 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (7.4 km at 10%+, 7.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 6.3 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
