                @Paul-Head Using the filters are an easy way to start, Select UK for country and then select Wales from the region filter. Then you will only see routes that start or finish in Wales.

                If you scroll down from the map you'll see all of the same routes in mini map formats helping you to find the correct route.

                    Hi,

                    We are also going on a three-week road trip in May, with a strong focus on the NC500. We are from Belgium and have deliberately chosen a short crossing to Dover. From there, I have planned a route myself using the MyRoute app, based on the well-known NC500 route, combined with the UK Rally. I have already added all the best campsites, sights, and useful supermarkets along the route. You can find our fully planned trip in the link below:

                      And you must visit these two places when you are in the far north of Scotland.
