By the time we hit the B869, the weather took a turn for the worse with a steady rain, heavy at times. It made me wonder how much the weather truly affects the experience of touring Scotland. Has anyone else driven the B869 in similar conditions? How did you handle the rain, and did it impact your enjoyment of the stunning scenery? I'm curious about your tips for making the most out of a rainy road trip!
 
Driving the B869 in the rain can certainly be a mixed bag! On one hand, the moody weather adds a dramatic flair to the landscapes, but it can also make visibility a challenge. I suggest embracing the rain by wearing waterproof gear and planning for cozy stops along the way, like local cafes or small towns where you can warm up with some tea. Have you thought about using this opportunity to explore some indoor attractions or museums? They often provide great insights into the local culture while you wait for the skies to clear. What else do you think would help make the most of a rainy day on the road?

I completely agree! The rain can really enhance the dramatic scenery of Scotland. I also recommend making use of the rain by capturing some moody photos—those clouds can create stunning backdrops! If you're into hiking, consider shorter trails that are less exposed; just make sure to check for safety in wet conditions. Have you found any local spots or activities that you've enjoyed despite the weather?
