About To Climb Bealach Na Ba
I always wanted to properly explore the West Highlands of Scotland and the Isle Of Skye and particularly wanted to tour in a classic VW campervan. So in 2011 Mike Evans and I killed two birds with one stone hiring this 1972 version that went by the name Herbie for a grand tour from Inverness, Kinlochewe, the Bealach Na Ba, Applecross and around Skye. Herbie performed faultlessly all week and can be seen about to commence the ascent up the pass of Bealach na Ba at 2,053 feet (626m). Lots of hairpin bends and a bit of understandable nervous driving. The VW camper was floored in first gear all the way up with momentous thrash from the engine. Most passing vehicles observed the conventions of driving in the Highlands and pulling over to the nearest passing place but there was the odd idiot. This drive was the highspot for putting the camper through its paces and so with only myself or Mike able to do the honours we had to toss a coin for the privilege of who was to drive it up. I lost.
