Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 20% for 230 m early on, comes down 18% for 380 m near the end.

Clockwise: Climbs 18% for 380 m early on, comes down 20% for 230 m near the end.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (1.3 km at 10%+, 0.7 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.5 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 3.4–6.4, from 1337 m to 1122 m.
