On the southern part of Mull, the A849 is a beautiful road. It's usually quiet and although undulating, isn't super hilly. Look out for Ben More if you're riding in a westerly direction.

Very beautiful route, demanding but affordable. The biggest difficulty is the traffic which is poorly suited to this single track (although type A). We must systematically stop to let our dear friends who are motor touring enthusiasts pass... which frequently cuts off the effort and becomes quite painful in the long run. Fortunately the majesty of these landscapes more than compensates for this inconvenience 😀

Lovely climb and descent, even on heavily laden touring bikes and not too much traffic to interrupt progress (in mid May for us). Also, if you do have to stop, you can even better appreciate the magnificent scenery, perhaps see some deer, or even golden eagles!
