The Rest and be Thankful

A pass and a road junction in Argyllshire between Loch Long and Loch Fyne, the Rest and be Thankful rises to 262m (860 feet) 4 miles (6.5 km) west of Arrochar. It takes its name from the inscription on a rough stone bench at its summit probably inscribed by Major William Caulfeild (1698 - 1767) who built the first military road over the pass in 1746-48.
