Day 2:
Heading west, you contour the beautiful Moray coastline before passing the Highland capital, Inverness. A short ride along quiet, sweeping roads takes you to Ullapool, the boarding point for your scenic ferry to the Hebrides. Arriving in Stornoway, route around the whole island, taking in the peaceful, pure and timeless scenery of this oasis of calm before your second night stop in the island’s capital.
Day 3:
The ferry carries you “over the sea to Skye”, alighting you at it’s Northern tip. You will then ride along Skye’s dramatic landscape of harsh coastlines passing spectacular mountains famed for their climbing challenges. Past Dunvegan Castle then onwards in the shadow of the Cuillin hills and, via the Skye Bridge, you will return to the mainland. Ride past Plockton, a hidden gem with its palm tree-lined seafront, before routing to your next stop at Torridon.
Day 4:
A circular route from Torridon takes in the grandeur of the Northern Highlands. Hugging the unspoilt west coast, you will pass secluded bays with golden sands, quaint villages and rugged terrain. Before continuing inland. Our carefully selected route displays the Scottish Highlands in all its glory, whilst allowing you to ride on some of this area’s most scenic and quietest roads. Highlights include the Inverewe Gardens, Corrieshalloch Gorge and the Falls if Shin. Before riding to the haven of Plockton.
Day 5:
From Plockton you head south, taking in some of Scotland’s best motorcycling roads. Pausing at the picturesque Eilean Donan castle, featured in many films including “Highlander”. You will soon pass the awesome sight of the UK’s highest peak, Ben Nevis. South from Fort William, you will be awestruck by the sheer magnitude of Glen Coe, steeped in bloody history. Then you cross the lonely, wide-open moors of Rannoch on roads that seem to have been custom built for motorcycling, winding your way through Rob Roy country; beautiful glens and stunning lochs; before descending once more into the lowlands finally arriving at your start point.
