Scotland and what not to miss?
I'm planning a trip to Scotland for 2 weeks leaving from Belgium and going via the tunnel to Folkestone. Looking for nice roads up to Oban and in Scotland. Max 2 days up to Oban.
I've found already this route: https://www.northcoast500.com/interactive-map.aspx |
Looks a good route. Two thoughts:
assuming you are riding clockwise i'd cut south from Tongue on north coast through Lairg rather than doing the NE corner. Scotland is amazing, John O'Groats is not! Theres some really nice stuff south of there too so check out some of those options as well.... ......and read up on midgies, especially if you plan to camp! The jewel in the crown is the NW corner - Applecross peninsula, Gairloch, road north and south of Ullapool etc |
Have a look at my page on Shetland, Orkney and the Hebrides. Some of it might not be so useful if you are not going to the islands but there's still a lot of information. I can thoroughly recommend the independent hostals as places to stay.
