A magnificent climb to get to Oban. Expect a rather narrow road, not the best road surface, but also no or hardly any traffic. A very steep start, but then doable. Through a landscape that is really worth leaving the main road for. Watch out for the sheep, and a little bit for the holes in the road.... read more

A magnificent climb to get to Oban.

Een schitterende klim om binnendoor te kunnen rijden naar Oban.
Verwacht een vrij smalle weg, niet het beste wegdek.., maar ook geen of nauwelijks verkeer.
Een erg steil begin, maar daarna goed te doen. Door een landschap dat echt de moeite waard is om de grote weg voor te verlaten. Let op de schapen, en een klein beetje op de gaten in de weg.
