The highest road climb in the UK, with a viewpoint at the top looking out to Skye, Raasay and the Outer Hebrides. No walking needed since it's roadside, but the pass itself closes in poor visibility or snow, so check conditions before you drive up.
Famous mountain pass road viewpoint (highest road climb in UK, 626m); robust, well-known, car-accessible.
Large parking area at the summit of the pass.
Roadside viewpoint, no walk-in needed; short path options for closer views.
