Nu är vi hemma efter en dryg vecka i nordligaste Skottland, här är några tankar och tips om North Coast 500 #NorthCoast500 #NC500:
Bilen: Vi fick en Nissan Juke, lite högre än golfklassen, men inte en SUV, det visade sig vara perfekt för de små vägarna i norr. Automatare ett måste, för mig iaf.

It's great to see 'Hide and Seek' and 'Bloody Orkney' by @KenLussey available at the superb #UllapoolBookshop. One of the best bookshops you'll find anywhere, this is an essential stopping off place on any trip to the far north-west or for anyone on the #NorthCoast500 #NC500.

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
Over the past two months our winter virtual tour of Scotland has progressed from Dumfries in the south to Durness in the north and today it concludes at Smoo Cave, at the eastern end of the village. "Smoo" is a name thought to derive from the Old Norse Smuga which means "hiding place". More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/durness/smoocave/index.html
Thank you for your company over the past two months!

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
We return to the A838 which, now a single track road, we follow 14 miles north-east to Durness. Our 2022/3 winter virtual tour of Scotland has taken us from Dumfries, almost on Scotland's south coast, to Durness on its north in nearly two months; and it's time to bring it to an end. More about Durness: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/durness/durness/index.html

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
No trip to this part of Sutherland is complete without making the four mile trek from the nearest road to Sandwood Bay, the most magnificent beach in the UK. It offers nearly a mile and half of wide pinkish sand backed by sand dunes and a loch, and is flanked by cliffs and an impressive sea stack.

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
We travel north to Kinlochbervie, which has become one of the major fishing ports in Scotland. Fishing boats, often based in east coast Scottish ports, land their catches here at the fish market built in 1988. The fish are then transported to destinations across the UK and Europe.

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
We follow the twisting single track B869 north and then east to join the main road south of Kylesku. Until 1984 the crossing of the loch at Kylesku was accomplished by ferry: or by a 100 mile detour inland via Lairg. Then the stunningly beautiful Kylesku Bridge upened to traffic.

We head inland then pick up the B869, the twisting single track road that follows the coast from Lochinver north then east to Kylesku. After a few miles this brings us to the scattered settlement and amazing beach scenery at Clachtoll. The picture is of the Bay of Clachtoll.

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
While we are at Achmelvich we visit the elusive Hermit's Castle, built in 1950 on a rocky headland. It's been called Europe's smallest castle and is actually a concrete folly built in a Brutalist style that blends surprisingly well into its rocky shoreside setting.

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
We travel three miles north-west along narrow single-track roads to Achmelvich, home to some of the most enticingly beautiful beach scenery in northern Scotland (and there's plenty of competition). What you find is a small collection of wonderful beaches with rocky bays and headlands. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/lochinver/achmelvich/index.html

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
We travel 10 miles west by road to Lochinver, the largest settlement on the west coast of Scotland north of Ullapool. The village and its harbour have grown around the inland, eastern end of Loch Inver. The harbour has been enlarged several times, most recently in 1992.

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
We catch the ferry south-west from Stornoway across The Minch to Ullapool in Wester Ross, on the north side of Loch Broom and sheltered by it. Ullapool is a great base from which to explore Wester Ross to the south or the Atlantic coast of Sutherland to the north: and it has an excellent bookshop.

A lovely view from the village of #Drumbeg in the Scottish Highlands. We took the Drumbeg Loop (B869) to get here after crossing the Kylesku Bridge. I've never held on to the holy crap handle so tight. That stretch of road is not for the faint of heart! Glad there was no oncoming traffic on the the scariest part of the road. I could see it being a nightmarish drive in the summer months.

If I remember correctly, this is #Loch a' Chàirn Bhàin in #Sutherland, #Scotland as seen from the north end of the Kylesku bridge. And yes, I copied-and-pasted the name of the loch straight from Google. Beautiful scenery, huh? Would love to do the North Coast 500 drive again someday. We did it in 2016. Been a while.

These are 3 of only 12 paintings left in my @etsy shop. As a number of people asked me I kept my shop open for a bit longer than I'd planned after my recent sale, but I’m definitely not going to be about after tomorrow for a wee while, so my shop will be closed until 2023.
