Driving on Mull

We understand that many visitors will not be used to our single track roads, or may simply want to take their time to enjoy the scenery. All we ask is that you please respect the locals who need to get to work, pick up their children from school and have to get to where they need to be. There are passing places roughly every 500 yards, always pull over to your left and let drivers pass in a safe and sensible way.

Whether it’s your first trip to Mull or you regularly visit, the picturesque journey through the Highlands is just the start of your holiday. With all the trains coinciding with the ferries, the five minute walk from Oban train station to the Calmac ferry terminal is stress free.
