Gonna be in Scotland this summer and planning a 5/6 day loop from Inverness. Most of it is well documented, except this bit from Inverness to Strathcarron. Looks like it's pretty rough in places, but I don't mind pushing for a bit when needed. I've got a pretty traditional setup with panniers front and back and never really found joy in packing light. These stats (60ish miles and 2950' of elevation gained) are within a reasonable day for me on decent gravel, so there's plenty of gas in the tank for a little extra effort.
Based on photos from Komoot it looks doable on an unloaded mountain bike, and the komoot and RWGPS heat maps seem to indicate that people have done the route (though infrequently).
Any opinions?
