[Hidden Scotland](https://dmchighlands.com/category/hidden-scotland/ "Hidden Scotland") ![Black brush stroke on a white background creating an abstract pattern](https://dmchighlands.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Path-1.png "Black brush stroke on a white background creating an abstract pattern") _Descending Glen Docherty Towards Kinlochewe from the East, Scottish Highlands  _ ## **What do I need for a self-drive holiday in Scotland?** A self-drive holiday in Scotland is a fantastic option for having total flexibility and control over your itinerary. With beautiful scenery and some iconic routes to explore, Scotland’s the ideal destination. How about the [North Coast 500](https://spiritjourneysworldwide.com/tours/nc500-self-drive-tour/#/ "North Coast 500")? It’s definitely a bucket list trip for many for a reason. Or venture further afield to explore [Shetland](https://spiritjourneysworldwide.com/tours/shetland-trip/#/ "Shetland") at your own pace. With magical light and scenery, as well as ample opportunity to spot wildlife, do remember your binoculars and camera! So, now you’ve decided to go for it what do you need? We’ll provide your car or campervan hire, bed and breakfast accommodation and vehicle insurance. You’ll also receive plenty of information to help you make the most of your tour. For the most enjoyable and comfortable self-drive holiday, it’s all in the planning and preparation. ##### _Packing_ A self-drive holiday is so convenient – no need to lug heavy bags around all day! Have a think about what you’ll need. Pack logically so you don’t have to empty the boot each time you are looking for something. Bring suitable clothing and gear for exploring on your stops. Remember that even in summer, we often experience four seasons in a day in Scotland! An emergency first aid kit, snacks and drinks are also a must. For more packing tips, check out our blog [5 Packing Tips for a Self-Drive Holiday in Scotland](https://spiritjourneysworldwide.com/5-packing-tips-for-a-self-drive-holiday-in-scotland/ "5 Packing Tips for a Self-Drive Holiday in Scotland..."). ##### _Documentation_ You’ll need to bring your driver’s licence and any additional paperwork such as booking information and insurance documents.  If there’s an additional driver, remember that they will need their documents too. Keep your documents handy and in a safe place, such as the glove compartment. ##### _Fuel_ You’ll be driving in some remote places, so think ahead for your vehicle’s fuel requirements. For petrol stations, you can usually find good information on online maps such as Google maps. For a comprehensive map of and information about electric charge points across Scotland, see the ChargePlace Scotland [website](https://chargeplacescotland.org/ "website").   ![What do I need for a self-drive holiday in Scotland?](https://spiritjourneysworldwide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/michael-fousert-XRx5tcRsHEU-unsplash-640x427.jpg "What do I need for a self-drive holiday in Scotland?") ##### ##### _Maps_ Don’t rely on technology when you are driving in remote areas. Signal strength can often drop and then sat-navs and smartphones become anything but useful! It’s a good idea to pack a paper map of the area you are travelling in. You might also want to make a hard copy note of petrol stations and electric charge points, in case you can’t access the online maps when you need to. ##### _Driving_ You can keep abreast of any road works, accidents or similar that might affect your journey by checking the [Traffic Scotland](https://trafficscotland.org/ "Traffic Scotland") website. It also has a handy [carbon calculator](https://trafficscotland.org/carboncalculator/ "carbon calculator"), if you’re interested in assessing the carbon footprint of your trip. If it’s your first time driving in the Scottish Highlands, you may be unfamiliar with our single track roads. [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-track_road "Wikipedia") has a good summary of what to expect, including this photo of a single track road near Kinlochewe. Here are a few tips to keep in mind: - Drive on the left – the width of the road will vary, but always keep to the left. - Be aware of speed – the maximum speed is usually 60mph but it’s often much safer to drive slower than that along winding roads with limited visibility. Of course, you can take in more scenery at a slower pace too! - Use passing places for allowing oncoming vehicles to pass you, and also for allowing cars behind you to overtake. You may be driving leisurely on holiday but they may be on their way to work! Do not block passing places by parking there – they are essential for road safety. ![What do I need for a self-drive holiday in Scotland?](https://spiritjourneysworldwide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Scotland_Kinlochewe_SingleTrackRoad-640x513.jpg "What do I need for a self-drive holiday in Scotland?")

A self-drive holiday in Scotland will take you through some of the most breath-taking scenery you may see in your life. Don’t forget to bring your camera, binoculars, and of course your chargers and spare batteries.
