Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 370 m early on, comes down 16% for 1190 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 16% for 1190 m early on, comes down 15% for 370 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.5 km at 10%+, 1.2 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 6.2–9.5, from 1495 m to 1198 m.
