It boasts the greatest ascent of any road climb in the UK, rising from sea level at Applecross to 626 metres (2,054 ft), and is the third highest road in Scotland.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0px;">The name is Gaelic for Pass of the Cattle, Scottish Gaelic: Bealach na Bà, as it was historically used as a drovers' road.</p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/AlanDrury/">AlanDrury</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/AlanDrury/photo/26552270 Fri, 02 Dec 2016 18:26:33 GMT
