Last August and September I went on a four week trip around (mostly) Scotland. The route started in Newcastle where I arrived by ferry from the Netherlands. From there I went west to the coast, then up to Inverness and after that back down south to Newcastle. The planned route was about 930 miles (1500KM), but I ended up doing around 1250 miles (2000KM). Scotland is definitely the most beautiful country I’ve ever been to, it’s so diverse. Got really lucky with the weather and midges as well, the only problem was finding campsites that accepted tents. Most campsites only accept RV’s and caravans, but wild camping is allowed so that was always an option. The route was tough at times with a lot of climbs above 10% gradient, but it’s so worth it! Definitely planning to come back one day to explore more of Scotland.
