Enjoy - hope the weather is kind for you!

If you're over by the west coast try to take in Balach na Ba if the weather looks OK.  Great road, great views.  Applecross for a bacon butty with a view as well.

If you do happen to get to Applecross, may I suggest the Walled Garden Café (check opening times) as a place to dine. Its not cheap to dine there but you get plenty on the plate and I can recommend the venison burger  :grin:

Lots of people ride the Bealach Na Bá in to and out of Applecross, if time allows you might like to take the coast road in to or out of Applecross... which imho adds to the whole experience.

Enjoy and get back safe...

Take great care if you are planning on doing the Bealach - some campervan drivers are taking no prisoners  :shock:

Hope the weathers OK for you - its breezy with some deluges up here at the moment  :smirk:

+1 for the Walled Garden Cafe, we took it in during our NC500 last year,  fitted us in when space was tight, lovely people.
