| | A9 road |
 | | Between Edinburgh and Stirling, the A9 is a motorway (the M9), while sections of the original A9 pass through the towns of Linlithgow and Falkirk, running alongside the motorway. |
 | | Just north of Stirling, the A9 from Bridge of Allan merges with the M9 at Dunblane and becomes a proper trunk road, travelling north east, bypassing Auchterarder, Perth and Pitlochry, then through the Grampian Mountains on a northerly route, taking in Dalwhinnie, Kingussie and Aviemore, before reaching Inverness. |
 | | Crossing the Kessock Bridge, the A9 becomes the main route in the far north of Scotland, passing near Invergordon, Tain, Dornoch and Helmsdale before finally heading north to the port of Thurso. |
