About Honister Pass
Collections
Honister Pass is a serious piece of road. The climb rises sharply from the valley, and the steep ramps arrive early and without apology.
The effort is intense, with gradients that demand low gears and full commitment. The landscape is dramatic, but there’s little time to admire it.
At the summit, the relief is immense. This is a climb that rewards grit and leaves you feeling thoroughly tested.
