North Coast 500 Road Trip

Updated: Feb 18, 2022

Touring the North Coast 500 in my Land Rover Defender 110. 6 week overlanding road trip in Scotland staring at Inverness.

Driving the 500 miles along the north coast.


Over view

The NC500 starts in the northern city of Inverness, weaves along the west coast to Applecross and then northwards towards the towns of Torridon and Ullapool. From there, you'll venture to some of the most northerly coastal points in Scotland, passing by Caithness and John o' Groats before heading south again through Dingwall and finally back to Inverness.

  • Distance: 516 miles
