This Coast and Castles North itinerary outlines our late summer tour for 2017. As usual, we will be touring with some of our friends from Stockport Community Cycling Club – Andy S and Andy S again, the same friends who joined us on our Scottish C2C and Way of the Roses 2017 tours. We will also be joined by tour ‘newbie’ John.

The Coast and Castles North route follows on from our Coast and Castles South tour, and begins in the Scottish capital, Edinburgh, before passing through the coastal town of Dundee and ending in the Granite City, Aberdeen. The route takes in 180 miles of beautiful countryside and coast.
