North Coast Journey Summary

North Coast Journey: The Magic of Scotland's Northern Highlands by Brigid Benson

This is the essential guide to the north of Scotland, on a route which begins in Inverness, weaves westwards to Applecross and then northwards towards Torridon. From Ullapool it leads to the most northerly points in Britain, passing by Caithness and John o' Groats before heading south again through Dingwall and to Inverness.In addition to stunning mountains, moors, lochs and beaches, the route also features exquisite towns and villages, castles, distilleries, breweries, natural wonders and wildlife.

Brigid Benson, who knows the road intimately, divides the route into manageable chunks, suggesting where to discover history, observe wildlife, meet great local characters, shop at quirky stores, taste outstanding food, drink in friendly bars and cafes, stand in awe of amazing sights, and recommending places to picnic, swim, surf, walk and stargaze. And great places to camp and stay. She also draws attention to attention to potential pitfalls, offering useful advice on single-track roads, fuel, car problems, planning realistic itineraries, and much more.

'This is a wonderful book - written with real heart'

-- Sean Lusk

'Clearly Benson loves the area and wants others to love it as well. So, even if you aren't planning such a trip, the book is still a joy to read, with its superb illustrations. Enjoy it by the fireside in the winter and then plan your trip for when the sun begins to shine'
