Location: Northbay, Eilean Siar, Scotland, United Kingdom
The Loch An Duin climb from Northbay on the Isle of Barra is a remote, rolling ascent averaging 6%, with ramps nudging 12%. The single-track road rises steadily through moorland and lochside scenery, with sweeping views and barely another soul in sight. The climb feels exposed, especially in the wind, so pace yourself and stay relaxed on the pedals. It’s a quiet climb through wild and open island landscape.
