The fusion of physical exercise with awe-inspiring landscapes can elevate a simple ride into a memorable experience. And, while pedaling away is beneficial for your health , it's the stunning views that work to truly nourish the spirit, making this particular path an essential addition to any cyclist's bucket list.

The Applecross peninsula, nestled in the northwest of Kyle of Lochalsh in Wester Ross within the Scottish Highlands, has been branded the most beautiful cycling path on TikTok – after impressing users worldwide. Rocket Charities said there's no match for its sheer beauty. Interestingly, the name "Applecross" dates back roughly 1,300 years, yet it isn't commonly used by residents, who prefer "Shore Street" or just "The Street".

The adoption of the "Applecross" name likely stems from the famous Applecross Inn, situated along the serene Applecross Bay which overlooks the Inner Sound. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
