Which way round
Anticlockwise: Climbs 15% for 620 m early on, comes down 13% for 750 m near the end.
Clockwise: Climbs 13% for 750 m early on, comes down 15% for 620 m midway.
Better anticlockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.2 km at 10%+, 0.6 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 3.8–7.3, from 737 m to 434 m.
