Location: Inveraray, Argyll and Bute, Scotland, United Kingdom
The Creag Dhubh climb from Inveraray is a steady and scenic ascent, averaging 5% over 4 km with short ramps reaching 9%. The road surface is smooth and well-maintained, winding through forested hills with glimpses of Loch Fyne behind you. The gradient is mostly consistent, allowing you to find a rhythm and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. It’s sheltered in parts but can still catch you out with sudden gusts higher up. As you crest the top, you’re rewarded with a quiet Highland plateau and a real sense of calm.
