North Coast 500 (NC500)
The North Coast 500 is Scotland's legendary coastal route – a 500-mile circular tour through the breathtaking Highlands. The starting and ending point is Inverness, from where the route leads along rugged cliffs, endless sandy beaches, lonely moors, and picturesque villages. For campers, the NC500 offers unparalleled experiences: sleeping under the stars, at small family-run campsites, or freely in the wild (where permitted). Highlights along the way include Dunrobin Castle, the white beaches of Durness, the dramatic mountain pass Bealach na Bà, and the rugged coastlines at John o’Groats.
