BEALACH NA BÀ

SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS

Breathtaking panoramas and an exhilarating mountain drive await you at the top of this Alpinelike mountain pass in Wester Ross, in the Scottish Highlands. Once a drovers' road, Bealach na Bà (the Pass of the Cattle) rises to 626m, and with sharp hairpin bends and gradients of nearly 20%, welcome to the UK's steepest road ascent. On clear days get set for an awesome horizon of the Cuillin Ridge on the Isle of Skye, and the Western Isles.
