A guidebook to Scotland’s West Highland Way, a 95-mile walk from
Milngavie near Glasgow to Fort William, passing Loch Lomond, crossing
Rannoch Moor and finishing in the shadow of Britain’s highest mountain.
The walk, which takes roughly one week to complete, is described in
seven stages, with each stage ranging from 8 to 20 miles. The guide
details the ‘classic’ south-north direction but also provides a summary
description for those wanting to walk the route in the opposite
direction.
The guidebook, which features step-by-step route descriptions, 1:100K
mapping, handy practical information as well as notes on the region’s
history, culture and geography, is accompanied by a separate,
pocket-sized 1:25K OS map booklet, providing all the mapping you need to
walk the route.
Passing from the lowlands to the highlands, the West Highland Way,
which is one of Scotland’s Great Trails, showcases the splendour of
glens flanked by great mountains, majestic moorland and sprawling
farmland. It is the perfect adventure for distance walkers keen to
discover the wild beauty of western Scotland.
