Which way round

Anticlockwise: Climbs 13% for 600 m early on, comes down 23% for 480 m midway.

Clockwise: Climbs 23% for 480 m midway, comes down 13% for 600 m midway.

Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.9 km at 10%+, 0.9 km of it 15%+) and come down 1 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.

Main descent: km 2.0–3.5, from 375 m to 211 m.
