This 14-day route takes you all the way to the Highlands, Skye, The Outer Hebrides, The Orkney Isles and The Cairngorms. The route starts and ends at the train station in Dunblane. Prepare for many ferries, ocean winds, misty lochs and mountain views! About 1200 km's by bike (ferries excluded).I rode this tour on a Giant Expedition 3.0 touring bike.Wildcamping is allowed. There are many campings along this route as well. Some recommendations for overnight stays:- Thornhill (near Dunblane): Mains Farm Wigwams
- Tyndrum: By The Way Hostel and Campsite
- Isle of Harris; Outer Hebrides: Lickisto Blackhouse Camping
- Isle of Lewis; Outer Hebrides: wild camp at Bostadh beachLink to story and photo's (in Dutch): dichterbijdegrond.nl/2016/10/08/fietsen-schotland-solo
