The climb from the Mull of Kintyre Lighthouse, known as "The Gap," is a remote and punishing ascent, averaging 10% with fierce ramps over 20%. The narrow, rough road winds steeply away from the lighthouse, with stunning coastal views behind and wild moorland ahead. The surface is weathered and can be slippery, so pick your line carefully and stay seated for traction. There's little respite—just a relentless grind through windswept solitude. It’s a brutal but breathtaking climb that feels like the edge of the world.
