Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 970 m early on, comes down 20% for 400 m midway.

Clockwise: Climbs 20% for 400 m midway, comes down 20% for 970 m midway.

Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.4 km at 10%+, 1.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 4.5–10.1, from 1247 m to 831 m.
