Anticlockwise: Climbs 19% for 870 m early on, comes down 16% for 980 m midway.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (2.4 km at 10%+, 2.4 km of it 15%+) and come down 1.2 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 5.9–9.1, from 1432 m to 1058 m.
