If there’s one thing Scotland
If there’s one thing Scotland does well… it’s road trips! Stunning coastal routes, scenic mountain drives, and open, endless landscapes that create an awe-inspiring atmosphere – the sights you’ll see are out of this world!
When touring Scotland by car, your route can be as long or a short as you like – it’s completely up to you. Follow a dedicated driving route, such as the North Coast 500, which takes miles-upon-miles of northerly coastal points, iconic locations and pretty Highland towns and villages. Or make it up as you go along and create your own route, stopping off to explore the landscapes whenever you please. Travel through various regions over a week or two, or a few small towns and villages over a weekend, both will leave you itching to come back for more.
In Scotland, we have 12 National Tourist Routes that are spread across the country taking in all the scenic sights you could hope for, from glittering lochs in Argyll and the sparkling coastline of Fife, to the rugged landscapes of the Highlands and the enchanted forests of Perthshire.
Here are some tips and suggestion of how you can make your road trip in Scotland one to remember:
- Make a plan – thinking ahead and planning your route will save time and hassle when it comes to driving and it means you can make the most of your time here.
- Pack wisely – a map, registration documents, a road atlas, portable phone charger, snacks and a camera are some of the essentials to bring with you.
- Make some memories – bring some good friends, an amazing playlist, enjoy some delicious local food and make sure you take some snaps of your adventures.
Driving around a new country is fun and an exciting experience, but there are a few necessities to keep in mind –
- Remember to give yourself lots of time. There’s no rush, and so many places to go!
- Keep your petrol tank nice and full. Sometimes, the next petrol station can be far away.
- Check the weather and look up any attractions you want to visit in advance in case you need to book ahead.
- If you plan on winging it, make sure you have a GPS-enabled device.
- Be connected. Get travel tips from the VS iKnow community, plan your travel and receive updates on the road from various websites.
- Drive the speed limit. Not only it is safer, it is more fuel efficient and allows for more time to take in the beautiful views as you pootle along.
