Phil Hutchins Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Here’s a snapshot for scenery and good, fast, relatively empty roads (but watch out for plod and cameras as NO leniency is shown to sassenachs!):- Leave M74 at Beattock and visit Moffat for refreshments. A701 to Edinburgh. Round bypass and over new Queensferry bridge then M90 to Perth. A85 thro’ Crieff to A82 at Tyndrum, then down thro’ Glencoe to Fort William. A82 to Inverness or the smaller roads on the south of Loch Ness. East to Elgin then south through Speyside on A95 to join A9 at Aviemore. Visit Pitlochry. Visit Stirling. Then if you’re heading back ‘down south’ on the A1 visit the Jim Clark museum at Duns, west of Berwick. Lots of smaller-road diversions to scenic places off this route if you have time! Enjoy…Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
