    Hi folks,

    It's been a while since our last Highland Tour so it's time to get one back in the diary. Traditionally, our Highland Tours have been multi-night trips taking us deep into the Scottish Highlands and, on more than one occasion, on a complete lap of Northern Scotland.

    For this event though we'll aim for a single overnight in Inverness (accommodation details to follow shortly) allowing us to drive up on the Saturday and return home on the Sunday.

    On the Saturday morning we'll meet at Stirling Services before heading up through Glen Coe and Fort Augustus, en route to our overnight stop.

    As the sun rises on Sunday morning, I'm happy to lead those who wish on a short run along the spectacular A835 towards Ullapool before heading back for breakfast.

    After breakfast, we'll set out as a group on the return leg down from Nairn into the Cairngorm National Park and the excellent Old Military Road.

    We'll end our journey at Broxden Services in Perth, allowing everyone an opportunity to rest, fill up fuel, and take the more direct route home from a nice central location.

    Start Time: 10am for a 10:30 start, Saturday the 23rd of August
    Start Location: Stirling Services, Pirnhall, Stirling FK7 8ET

    Overnight Stop: TBC (likely a Premier Inn somewhere in Inverness)

    Optional Itinery: Sunrise run along the A835 to Ullapool

    End Time: Around 4pm on Sunday the 24th of August
    End Location: Broxden Services, 3 Broxden Ave, Perth PH2 0PX
