The Carn an t-Suidhe climb from Fort Augustus is a stunning Highland ascent, averaging 6% with steeper sections peaking around 12%. The road climbs steadily out of the village, revealing sweeping views of Loch Ness and the surrounding glens as you gain height. The tarmac is generally smooth, but exposed sections can be windy, so pace yourself and stay seated on the steeper ramps. Cresting the top feels like entering another world—quiet, remote, and beautifully wild.
