Road is quite narrow in places with the occasional blind bend so beware of oncoming traffic or descending cyclists. If you wanted to carry on climbing, head for the masts at Alport Heights, from where you can get some brilliant 360° views (rumour has it you can see the Welsh Mountains from up there).
