Is the the most scenic drive in the UK?

In this episode I ask the question: is this the most scenic route in the UK? Join me on one of the most dramatic sections of the NC500, travelling from Portskerra to Ullapool across the far north-west of Scotland. You can see the full video of our stop at Smoo Cave here    • Smoo Cave - The most atmospheric stop on t...   This was around 8 hours of driving, scenery and stops, condensed into a 30-minute narrated journey through some of the most spectacular landscapes on the route — wild coastlines, empty roads, mountains, lochs, ruins, changing weather and that unmistakable feeling of being somewhere properly remote. This part of the NC500 includes long stretches of single track road, with passing places, slow-going sections and plenty of moments where you really need to take your time. It’s not a road to rush — but that’s also part of what makes it such a memorable drive.There’s some original music, but most of this one is narrated as I talk through the route, the scenery and the experience of travelling this incredible part of the NC500 If you’re planning the NC500, or just enjoy scenic road trips through Scotland, I hope this gives you a real feel for what this part of the journey is like.
