Anticlockwise: Climbs 17% for 750 m midway, comes down 18% for 1450 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.4 km at 10%+, 1.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.8 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 2.0–6.3, from 878 m to 545 m.
