North Coast 500: Loch Ness to Ullapool to Durness, (Sango Sands Campsite); Scotland, A835; A838

North Coast 500 leads you around the outer most edge of the Scottish Highlands and through some of the most stunning scenery you will ever see - not to mention some of the best driving roads this side of the Atlantic!
The auto-focus on the camera really struggled because of the low sun reflecting off the heated window screen filament wire, especially during the first 30 minutes of the video (it wasn't just the camera, I could see it as well and it wasn't exactly helping see past the reflections on the window screen--especially with the low sun!) Luckily, it doesn't happen very often.
Either way, rather than cutting the first half hour from the video or scrapping it entirely, I've left it in tact so you have the choice to either ignore it when it plays up and watch the entire journey, or just skip forwards 30 minutes to when the picture is better.

In this section, our route was:
#LochNess to #Ullapool to #Durness, #scottishhighlands.

#Scotland.

Roads: #A835 and #A838.

We end the journey and this video, at #SangoSands #Campsite, Durness, #Lairg.
#California

At Durness, you can get 24 hour fuel, using a credit/bank card payment machine at the pumps, which are opposite the shop shown in the video.

The Spar type shop shown in the video, is 20 meters up the road (up the hill) from Sango Sands Campsite. To give you an idea of Sango's prices, camping cost £8 per night last year.

I can't remember if that was per person or per tent, but remember there being a billet styled kitchen with Gas hobs that were Free to use, along with a brand new toilet / shower block!

There is a small shop on the road by the entrance to Sango Sands (slightly down the hill), which also sells hot coffee/tea, but the one shown in the video, just up the road, opposite the petrol/diesel station, is larger and sells most things, but the prices and selection is pretty good at both shops.

Not shown in this video, but so you know, there is also a 24 hour petrol station at #JohnOGroats.

It is located at the Post Office, which is open normal business hours; the fuel pumps are card payment 24 hour (or cash when the post office is open).

The sound had to be muted to avoid copyright issues.
