Are motorhomes welcome on the NC500? With highlands2hammocks

This week Matt and Keith are joined by the wonderful Campbell and Gemma from highlands2hammocks to tackle issues of overcrowding and responsible tourism in the north of Scotland and, crucially, on the popular NC500 route.

Gemma and Campbell share their journey from living in a tiny campervan in Australia to becoming full-time motorhome travellers and content creators, from the inception of highlands2hammocks to their passion for documenting their adventures and educating fellow travellers.

Unpacking the realities of wild camping in the Highlands, we explore the Scottish Outdoor Access Code, the importance of respecting local communities and whether these areas can sustain the huge surge in tourism from the last few years.

Plus, in the news, hear Matt and Keith's opinions on a proposed vehicle levy for motorhomers and caravanners on the NC500.

In the Q&A, Matt answers your questions on adding extra leisure batteries, showers at campsites and replacing LED light strips.
