Kylesku Bridge: a driver’s guide to the A894 crossing

10 November 2026

Some roads have a moment you remember. On our 2026 Scottish Route, it was Kylesku Bridge. The third day was a full Highland loop, and crossing the bridge became one of the standout moments of the whole tour, with snow still on the peaks and clear skies overhead.

INSIDE THE ROADS WE CHOOSE.

The best driving roads are rarely defined by speed alone. We look for rhythm, visibility, surface, elevation and the way a road works with the landscape. Route Notes looks at the details behind the roads we choose — and why some routes simply drive better than others.

ROAD TYPE

MOUNTAIN PASSES

Elevation changes, technical sections, open sightlines and surfaces that reward a measured approach.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

RHYTHM OVER SPEED

A great road should flow. Corners, gradients and straights should work together naturally, rewarding smooth positioning rather than outright pace.

ROUTE GT PRINCIPLE

DRIVE THE PLACE

The road should reveal the destination — its landscape, character and geography — rather than simply provide the quickest way through it.
