Great drive up to the pass of the Outer Hebrides. Little car traffic.

Tolle Auffahrt zum Pass der Äußeren Hebriden. Wenig Autoverkehr.

Wat een prachtige klim naar de Clisham, zoals ze deze (en de andere zijde) noemen op Harris en Lewis (naar de hoogste top van the Outer Hebrides die je kunt zien, als hij zich niet in de wolken schuil houdt.
Met de bocht naar links onderaan, de lange terugdraaien bocht net voorbij de helft en de bocht naar links net voor de top, is dit echt een mooie klim met, niet te vergeten, prachtige uitzichten. Daarmee mooier dan de zuidzijde, maar ook een stuk eenvoudiger: het einde kent zeker een 200 meter van 11 en 10％, het zijn vooral tussendoor veel meer stukken van 8％.
