The North Coast 500 is one of the world’s most beautiful road trips.

About us

Bringing together a route of just over 500 miles (516 to be exact…) of stunning coastal scenery, the North Coast 500 is one of the world’s most beautiful road trips. The route naturally follows the main roads along the coastal edges of the North Highlands of Scotland, taking in the regions of Wester Ross, Sutherland, Caithness, Easter Ross, the Black Isle and Inverness-Shire. The Official North Coast 500 route begins and ends in Inverness at Inverness Castle which, perched on top of a hill, is the perfect starting point to the route and offers unparalleled views over the capital city of the Highlands. The North Coast 500 (NC500) was officially launched in 2015 by the North Highland Initiative (NHI), a non-profit organisation established by HRH, Prince Charles in 2005 in an effort to develop economic growth across the North Highlands. Now an independent company, North Coast 500 Ltd seeks to market the route’s unique tourism offering to a worldwide audience in order to benefit the whole of North Highlands.

    We’re excited to introduce our new Visitor Pledge aimed at encouraging responsible tourism along the iconic North Coast 500 route. 🌍🌿   Developed in consultation with residents and businesses along the route, this initiative invites visitors to commit to respectful and sustainable tourism during their visit, addressing the growing challenges facing local communities as a result of increased visitor numbers.   The initiative will ask visitors to leave no trace by disposing of waste responsibly, park only in dedicated parking areas during the day and overnight and to prioritise shopping in local businesses alongside a list of other positive commitments. As part of a broader strategy to preserve the North Coast route, the pledge underscores our organisation's commitment to placing local communities, the environment, and heritage at the heart of our operations. 💚 Learn more about the Visitor Pledge here: 🔗https://lnkd.in/edkwrSc6 We would like to extend a special thank you to the following businesses for their support and contribution to this initiative: Shop at the Pier, Gairloch Beauly Holiday Park Old School Beauly Gairloch Hotel The Sitooterie 42 Cycling Scene-it Media
