Today your route crosses Dartmoor, one of the most challenging sections of your journey.

If the weather is kind, the views are spectacular, though it can often be foggy in this wild part of southwest England.
There is a great descent into Postbridge, with its well-known stone Clapper Bridge, and before another climb. Once you’ve reached the small town of Moretonhampstead the hardest climbs are behind you. Phew.

The picturesque hills of the Lake District rise to your left as you head towards Shap Fell at over 1000 feet. It’s a long gradual climb.

Skirting the forests of Appin, you’ll head north continuing along the coast to Ballachulish – where the road splits off to the famous Glencoe.

Evanton to Thurso
The last and longest day of cycling! The terrain is challenging, bleak, and the roads are almost deserted! With plenty of miles in your legs now, you should be feeling up for the challenge – and the end is in sight!
Starting with a climb through moorland, you are treated to a great early morning view above Dornoch Forth, and a fantastic descent to Bonar Bridge. The road continues up as you climb for over 30 miles through the moors. There are a few flat stretches which help to break up the terrain and it’s not too steep; it can be quite exposed, yet the scenery is impressive. Look out for herds of red deer and birds of prey such as osprey or even the elusive golden eagle. You’ll pass several small lochs and some forested areas, and take time simply enjoy the scenery. From the top of the climb it’s a welcomed sweeping descent to the North Coast, where you’ll head east, witnessing glimpses of beautiful, deserted golden beaches. The roads are flatter now but this short section can feel very tough in strong winds. Passing the power station at Dounreay marks you approach into Thurso. This small town comes as a slight culture shock after all the miles you have covered on near-deserted roads in the last two days. Your hotel is a welcomed sight.
Cycling distance: approx 107 miles

You’ll take a short detour onto Dunnet Head, cycling the narrow road to Scotland’s most northerly point, and enjoy claiming that achievement too!
