Which way round
Clockwise: Climbs 15% for 350 m early on, no steep descents.
Anticlockwise: No steep climbing, comes down 15% for 350 m near the end.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.3 km at 10%+, 0.3 km of it 15%+) and come down no steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main descent: km 3.8–7.5, from 389 m to 209 m.
