  • Day 1-3 of our 9 day NC500 trip. We started in the northeast at home and drove to our first wild camp spot at the start of the NC500 trip which we choose as a lay by on the side of Lochness. For the offical first day it was then up to John o'groats for a night at the campsite. Day 2 was down to Torridon where we Found a wild camp spot. Day 3 we left and headed down to Kinlochbervie and stopped in the harbour. I have added in information about the showers which are situated in the harbour factory unit. #northcoast northcoast #nc500 #scotland #transitcustom #road #wildcamping

    Great video mate. Me and my wife got a Campervan in April and the NC500 is on our radar. It looks amazing…..even in the rain. Can’t wait for the next video 👍

      Thanks mate. Yeah it's a great trip and if the weather was better I still think the original 10 days would have been a push as they is so many places to visit. We loved it even with the weather as the van was so comfortable to be in and after all its Scotland. You will love the trip mate and keep your eye open for the next part I put on

    Great first few days mate !!! Hoping the weather changes !!!. Still beautiful despite missing the sunshine. I rekon it makes it more stunning and moody. Durness is class but the west coast is the best. Class vud mate bringing back some good memories 👌
