Højdepunkter
Driving north out of Inverness, we cross the Kessock Bridge before heading west through Achnasheen to Lochcarron. Here we can spend some time at Lochcarron Weavers Heritage Shop before our route takes us to Kishorn and the Bealach na Ba. This dramatic mountain pass, famous for being one of the most scenic drives in the world, takes us from sea level to over 2,000 feet before descending back to the shore at Applecross. The delightful Applecross Inn provides an opportunity for a delicious local seafood lunch. The epic scenery seems to continue endlessly as we follow the coast road round to Shieldaig. The views to Skye, the Isles of Rona & Raasay and a glimpse of Harris in the far distance are simply breathtaking! We can stop for a bite of lunch in Shieldaig if we've missed Applecross, and then continue through the majestic Torridon mountains to Kinlochewe. The route back to Inverness takes us through Glen Docherty and provides an opportunity to enjoy our favourite view of Loch Maree.

The road is perhaps the closest to an Alpine pass in UK. It features very sharp hairpin turns, switching back and forth up the mountain, with gradients approaching to 17% and is one of the highest roads of the country rising up to 626m (2,054ft) above the sea level. The name comes from the Scottish Gaelic, Bealach nam Bò, meaning ‘pass of the cattle’. The road was built in 1822. The original road was rough gravel and very difficult to clear in winter, meaning it could be blocked for weeks on end. In 1950 it was totally paved.
A fabulous seafood lunch or just a brief stroll through the village.
Pretty wee village with a lovely round tree-clad island off the shore

About Inverness
Inverness is the Highland capital on the River Ness, close to Loch Ness, Culloden battlefield, ancient cairns and the dolphins of the Moray Firth.
Inverness stands where the River Ness meets the Moray Firth, with a red sandstone castle on a bluff above the river and the wooded Ness Islands, linked by footbridges, a short stroll upstream. The city is the capital of the Highlands and the northern end of the Great Glen, the fault valley that runs south-west to Fort William. The Victorian cathedral of St Andrew stands on the river bank.
Top-ranked sights in Inverness: Loch Ness, Fort Augustus, Isle of Skye.
