Spanning Wester Ross, Sutherland, Caithness, Easter Ross, and the Black Isle, the NC500 is a circular tour suitable for all types of bikes and cyclists with a good level of fitness. The route can be completed in two weeks, with 16 stages ranging from 24 to 89km.
Alternate routes are provided to avoid the steep ascent of Bealach na Bà and the undulating Assynt peninsula, while the busy A9 east coast road is described as an alternative option. The guide includes 1:150,000 mapping and profiles for each stage, as well as GPX files to download. Detailed information on accommodation, refreshments, and facilities along the route is also provided.
