Part 5 of my Tour of Scotland with an EV towing a caravan. With my Kia EV6 I'm heading from my home in the Outer Hebrides to mainland Scotland to see what touring with an EV is like in the real world. As this is my first time, we are taking Baby Steps and making sure we stay well within the range of the EV6 so we don't get stuck. As confidence builds, so will the mileage between campsites.

00:19 - Driving by Loch Earn - coming up in this episode
00:53 - Maragowan CAMC Site, Killin, Dochart Falls, Railway Walk
03:08 - 127 mile attempt via Fort William
06:45 - Caravan Parking and EV Car Charging in Fort William
08:59 - Access to Morvich CAMC Site
10:22 - Morvich CAMC Site, car charging on Club Sites
12:24 - Coming up in Part 6 and outro
In this episode we start off at Maragowan Caravan and Motorhome Club Site in the town of Killin where we enjoy walks along the former Killin Branch of the Callander and Oban Railway while making use of one of the FREE car chargers.
We then brave a 127 mile trip towing the caravan to Morvich CAMC Site and attempt to do it WITHOUT stopping to charge.
On the way we look at the caravan and motorhome parking, and car charging situation in Fort William.
When we make it to Morvich, I share with you the most efficient way to charge the car when charging on a caravan site.

Please note that while viewers from across the world are more than welcome, this video is aimed at a UK audience. The Kia EV6 specifications and units of measurement all apply to the UK spec and are given in UK measurements. I appreciate that some markets prefer the stats to be given in metric units, but there is a lot of YouTube content from across Europe where this is already given, and us Brits have to do the conversions to imperial for ourselves... ;)
