本地经验与常见问题

游览贴士
Book the Lewis ferry with a car
CalMac recommends vehicle reservations on the Ullapool to Stornoway route, so book before you plan the rest of the trip.
Check seasonal opening
Ullapool Museum opens seasonally, and some hotels and restaurants in Assynt close for the winter. Check websites before you drive out.
Use passing places properly
Roads to Achiltibuie and Lochinver are largely single-track with passing places. Use them to let other vehicles pass, and never park in one.
Large motorhomes: avoid the coast road from Lochinver to Kylesku
The North Coast 500 FAQ advises large vehicles to take the A837 back from Lochinver instead of the narrow coastal road to Kylesku.
Plan hill days around the weather
Stac Pollaidh and An Teallach are rough mountain ground. Check the Mountain Weather Information Service forecast for the Northwest Highlands before you set out.
