Tough hill climb in either direction. The West side has straighter sections with a good surface, whilst the East side has some twisty hairpins with a gravel/grass strip down the middle of the road.

A tough climb with particularly steep sections on the east side while the west side is more gradual with a better surface. Some brilliant views though either coming down to Otter Ferry with a great view of loch Fyne, or heading down steeply into Glendarul.
