Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 23% for 1540 m early on, comes down 22% for 1900 m midway.
Anticlockwise: Easy first 3.7 km, climbs 22% for 1900 m midway, comes down 23% for 1540 m near the end.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (7.2 km at 10%+, 7.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 4.1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 3.7–14.2, from 1001 m to 2499 m.
