Travelling to Scotland this weekend: Advice
Hi guys,
I'm going to be driving to Scotland this weekend (specifically to Dundee for Monday afternoon). I really wanted to come up on Friday and spend a couple of days perhaps in Stirling and a trip to Applecross (possibly staying at Fort William). I've seen the forecast and it doesn't look great. Should I give up on getting anywhere (other than Dundee where I need to be). |

Re: Travelling to Scotland this weekend: Advice
Getting over to Applecross could be a bit iffy, the road gets dodgy pretty quickly at this time of year, don't think I would try unless a) you live there b) yer a wee bit saft in the heid !
Fort William, etc should be OK. Reports don't look that bad, bit of light snow, unless you go high up. If there is snow -avoid Aviemore, etc - full of ski-ing eejits blocking the roads, nightmare.
