Ardnamurchan Point Lighthouse is one of the defining scenic stops on this route: the feeling of reaching the far western tip of the mainland is hard to beat.
The drive itself becomes part of the experience, with single-track stretches and ever-expanding coastal views as you push out towards the point. Once you arrive, you’ll find the lighthouse complex perched above the sea, with a landscape that feels raw and elemental — particularly on clear days when the islands sit on the horizon.
For WC300 travellers, this is the kind of place that rewards slowing down. Build it into your day with time for photos, a coastal wander, and (if open) a coffee stop on site before heading back along the peninsula roads.
