I have added a few pics in the gallery not only to whet your appetite but also to to try to off-set SFG`s comments which seem to give a hint of an adventure experienced... smile

The pics are from a number of years back before the NC 500 came into being as such.... thus we had the roads to ourselves, I was in company with some Porsche owning friends. We were there in October and experienced better weather than might be hoped for in June, though a day after arriving home from the trip the roads over which we had travelled were closed due to heavy snowfall, so best to be ready for WEATHER..

Skye can be VERY busy it seems, not been there in years though stayed in a nice hotel

Think Hamwich has done some mileage in the area. I advised him and crew to invest in some Avon Skin So Soft to keep the midgies at bay, but they managed to miss the midge it seems, so may have some left over from their trip.

We based ourselves at Ault Bea for a week using it as a base from which to explore Wester Ross.

I do believe the roads can be rather busy these days with retirees who have invested in camper vans and stop in the PASSING PLACES using them as lay-bys and choking the road system completely preventing locals from going about their business..

Stac Polly incorrect spelling to help you pronounce it correctly is worth a scramble to the top, it has a fair size car park at it`s foot, it is just North of Ullapool... If I can help further just SHOUT... smile
