Slochd Summit

The Slochd Summit (An Sloc) is a mountain pass on the A9 road and the Highland Main Line Railway in the Scottish Highlands between Inverness and Aviemore. An old military road also goes through the pass. National Cycle Network route 7 also goes over the summit, largely following the old A9.

Both the road and the railway have signs marking the spot - the A9 is at a height of 1328 ft, while the railway reaches 1315 ft. The Slochd Summit is the second highest place on the route from Inverness to Perth - the Pass of Drumochter at 1500 ft is higher and bleaker.
