Location: North Uist, Eilean Siar, Scotland, United Kingdom
Opened in 1960, the causeway joins Benbecula with North Uist. Before it was built, you could cross by boat at high tide or by foot at low tide, but the former was treacherous in poor weather and the latter required a a guide to show you where the safe route was. It is a glorious feeling to pedal between the two islands with the sea on either side.
