We are situated on the North Coast 500 (NC500) route. Embark on one of the world’s most iconic coastal touring routes, and discover the breath-taking beauty of the North Highlands; a place where you’ll find white sand beaches, rugged mountains, hidden gems and a wealth of unforgettable experiences.
The North West Highlands is an area of immense beauty and Forest Way is ideally situated as a base for touring the Inverpolly/Assynt or Torridon/Gairloch circuits. Vast sweeping white sandy beaches which you can enjoy all to yourself, iconic mountains beckoning you to climb or simply to marvel at their grandeur from the comfort of your car and a picturesque tapestry of wild loch and forest.
Of special note is the North West Highlands GeoPark, a UNESCO site. You can find our more at NORTH WEST HIGHLANDS UNESCO GLOBAL GEOPARK .
