NC500 Super Unleaded Fuel : (Accurate as of September 2023)
“Where can you get Super Unleaded Fuel on the Scotland’s North Coast 500 Route?”
This is one of the most asked questions about the NC500 route, alongside, where can you get fuel on the NC500?
Thankfully the answer to the latter question is easy – there are loads of petrol stations along the route and as long as the range of the vehicle you are travelling in or on has is comfortably around 80 miles you don’t need to worry at all.
However if it is Super Unleaded, or E5 fuel, that you need for your vehicle, whether due to age, performance or personal choice then things become a little more difficult – although certainly not impossible.
Starting Point : Inverness :
Most people will start the NC500 from Inverness and then more off either clockwise or anticlockwise around the route. Which direction to go is another huge question, both options have their plus points and to be honest there are no real negatives – after all you will be going into the Scottish Highlands to take on an epic road trip, left or right is really of minimal consequence!
The good news is, there is no issue in getting Super Unleaded or E5 fuel in Inverness.
