#switchbacksaturday on Belach na Ba, aka the Applecross Pass 🏴
It was once a drovers’ road, worn out of the mountainside by cattle, not cut by machines for other machines. As such it’s narrow, windy and steep. Very steep.

#switchbacksaturday on Luz Ardiden for some of our guests today. They got the amazing switchbacks but they didn't get the stunning views because of low cloud...so I guess an excuse to come back to stay again so they can see it on a clear day! 😉😁

#switchbacksaturday on the Susten Pass 🇨🇭
"It’s as much a piece of motor transport history as the Appian Way or Route 66. That’s why the Swiss Government deem it a ‘Road of National Historic Importance’."

#switchbacksaturday on the Gotthard Pass 🇨🇭
"Arguably unnecessary since 1980 when the Gotthard Road Tunnel was completed, this spectacular Swiss pass is all the better for its obsolescence."
