The big one - a severe challenge to man and machine over 143 kilometers and 3000m of ascent. Climb Britains highest road pass at 630m from sea level. Stunning scenery and quiet roads with a full closure over the pass. A warm highland welcome from every village.


Bealach-na-Ba or Bealach nam Bo (Pass of the Cattle) is the UKs biggest road climb at 2053ft (626m) from sea level in just 6mls (10k). It is set in a fabulous unspoilt landscape with outstanding views of the sea and the hills. The Applecross Peninsula is renowned as a gem in Scotlands crown of natural wonders.
