I can't work out from your map whether you're going straight up the A82 along the NW side of Loch Ness? I've not done it, but I was strongly advised against it when I did LEJOG last year, due to the heavy traffic. Of course, the alternative route along General Wade's Military Road (B862) involves one very large climb but once you're up there, the views are fantastic. And it's a nice downhill into Inverness.

After a successful maiden credit card touring trip with Madame Jambon last year we're already thinking about the summer. Currently set on getting the Caledonian Sleeper to Glasgow, riding to the west coast then riding from Campbeltown to Inverness along NCR78 (250 miles total) over 7 days, then sleeper train home.
It's slightly more miles than our Welsh adventure last year but with less climbing so feels ideal. Anything to be aware of doing this in the summer other than the midges?
