Up the A82 from Glasgow if you're heading to Skye, great scenery most of the way, especially Glencoe. Applecross if you've got time, there's a campsite and a great pub, and the road to it is amazing, though not for the faint hearted! The road gets a lot of gravel on the surface - ride safe!

Skye is awesome... I've been down to Scotland in 2010 with a mate. Did a tour starting in the area of Perth up to Dufftown, to Inverness then along Loch Ness with a right hand turn to Skye... Brilliant! On Skye we did a complete tour along the coastal line...amazing scenery. From there towards Fort William (Ben Nevis), Oban etc.... Would luv to do it again some day!
On the way to Skye u cannot miss this one
Skye:
Got many more photo's obviously but cannot post them all

If you make it to Skye, after you leave Portree,head north and you'll come across Kelt Falls. A bit after the falls look for a road called the Querang, it goes from east to west, this is where all the really impressive scenery is, very pre historic.when to go is a bit of a hit and a miss. Often think Skye has its own little micro climate.

This was the week we were going to Scotland, went to Norfolk instead mostly to try the camper van out for a few days.
It rained lol
Will see how the weather is during the year, or next year it will have to be
