This ride begins at the base of the Applecross Peninsula, where quiet roads lead you into the heart of the Highlands. As you approach the Bealach na Bà, or "Pass of the Cattle," the landscape shifts dramatically. The winding ascent, a hallmark of this route, takes you through steep, hairpin bends surrounded by rugged peaks and moorlands. Bealach na Bà is one of the most challenging climbs in Scotland, offering panoramic views of the Inner Sound and the islands of Skye and Raasay on clear days. The road itself is narrow and steep, reminiscent of Alpine passes, but the wild and remote character of the Highlands sets it apart. The route culminates at the Bealach na Bà viewpoint, a rewarding stop after the climb. Here, you’ll take in breathtaking vistas of the rugged Highland landscape before descending toward the serene Applecross village.
