The ride passes the ruin of Ardvreck Castle on the shore ofLoch Assynt, built by the MacLeods of Assynt in the 16thcentury and the Kylesku Bridge which has been described as one of the most beautiful bridges in the world.
- Ullapool Beag – 65.5 miles with 2383m of ascent – a shorter but equally impressive in terms of scenery. Wind around the unique and spectacular mountains of west Sutherland on quiet roads. The route is demanding but rewarding, taking you to places you may have never been before.
