Mizmazzle’s Trip Across the Pond

@louisbosco said in Mizmazzle’s Trip Across the Pond:
NC500
I drove the NC500 a couple of years back and also visited Skye and I could not recommend it enough. Some of the most extreme landscape you will find anywhere in the UK. Stunning.

@hjl360 its on my bucket list too!
@Mizmazzle I think top gear did it many years ago and there's an amazing video from them on it..
-
@louisbosco I’m going to be looking a lot closer at it that’s for sure.

@Mizmazzle I've done the West Highland way twice. If you have the time, it's well worth it. From the Bridge of Orchy hotel to Fort William just gets better and better.

Me of the right about 26yrs go. This was taken at the end near Fort William. My first time completing it. -
This route is doable at a good pace in 2.5/ 3 days. First night you can stay at the Bridge of Orchy hotel. They have hotel rooms and lodge rooms. Second night stop at the kings house hotel in Glencoe. Again, there are hotels rooms, I think there maybe other types of accommodation as well. I tented it at this location, but it may not be an option for yourselves. Day 3 head to Fort william to complete your journey. -
1st Crainlarich to Tynndrum for break. Push on to Bridge of Orchy. 2nd Brigde of Orchy to Inveroran for Break then onto The King house hotel end of 2nd day.
3 The Kings house to Kinlochleven, ( the Hardest part) break then push on to Fort William. The last part is the longest and hardest. It can be broken differently eg
Day 1, Crianlarich to Kinghouse,
Kings house. 2 .King house to Kinlochleven stop there.
3 Kinlochleven to Fort William.
Hope this makes sense.
Currently travelling so maybe a bit messy.
