From Glenelg to Gruinard Bay through Wester Ross, Scotland

~ This page will take a little while to load - but if you like driving, and you like great scenery, it's worth it, for it's not only the views that are great, but sometimes the roads too ~

Travelling south - north, the journey takes you past:

Loch Duich, Loch Alsh, Plockton, Loch Carron, Loch Kishorn, the Applecross Peninsula, Loch Shieldaig, Loch Torridon, Loch Clair, Kinlochewe, Loch Maree, Loch Gairloch, Poolewe, Loch Ewe & Gruinard Bay

Total Distance 140 miles

some views from the trip.. all taken from the road

because I've been getting requests - some of the photos below link to 800x600 versions - left click to go to the large one and feel free to right click and 'set as wallpaper'

This journey is ruined if the weather is very bad, you won't see anything

However, If it's sunshine and showers, sometimes you get the best views

the roads in Wester Ross vary, but when they are good...

...they're empty
