About Harpers of Wick
Harpers of Wick is one of the most established garages in Caithness, with decades of experience serving the local community and, increasingly, NC500 travellers. The recovery service covers a wide area and the team is used to dealing with tourists' vehicles in difficulty. Wick itself is underrated as a stop — the heritage museum, old harbour and Pulteney Distillery all merit a visit while you wait for any repairs.

Breakdown Advice
⚠️ Remote Area Advice: Mobile phone signal is patchy or non-existent across much of the NC500. Before you set off, save your breakdown insurance number and this garage's number offline. Consider joining the AA, RAC or Green Flag — their Highland coverage includes recovery from very remote areas. Always carry a basic tyre repair kit and know how to change a tyre.
