Refuel with local fish and chips at The Plaice To Be before pulling into camp for your first night.

Aviemore Applecross ~100 Miles
Bealach na Bà Pass, Applecross
Stop for a rapid charge in Inverness as you track west. Today is the day you conquer the Bealach na Bà (Pass of the Cattle).

Applecross Fort William ~105 Miles
Nevis Range, Fort William
Drop south with a scenic drive down the coast. Take an optional top-up at Kyle of Lochalsh to enjoy views of the Skye Bridge, then arrive in Fort William for a rapid charge. If your legs need moving, head up to Nevis Range for a gentle recovery spin or forest walk.
Fort William Callander ~90 Miles
Glen Etive, Glencoe
Head through the dramatic peaks of Glencoe to ride the mesmerizing, dead-end road of Glen Etive, famous for its appearance in James Bond's Skyfall. An out-and-back route from near the Kinghouse Hotel is highly recommended. Make your way south towards Callander to set up camp for the night.
Callander Edinburgh ~55 Miles
EuroVelo 1 Loop, Callander
Get the legs moving one last time with a morning spin around the lochs or the famous EuroVelo 1 gravel ride loop from Callander. Once you're done, utilize one of the multiple rapid charging options on the route back if required, and return your campervan effortlessly to Ohm Campers.
