Walking the West Highland Way (Tour a pie)

Detalles

The 151 km long West Highland Way was the first official walking route in Scotland, opening in 1980 and traversing East Dunbartonshire, Stirling, Argyll and Bute and the Highlands.The perfect introduction to the Highlands, with its mix of challenging mountain paths, awe inspiring scenery, picturesque villages and the odd whisky distillery along the way! Beginning just outside Glasgow, the route takes you on a journey through some of Scotland's most stunning natural scenery, and also through its history, passing areas rich with stories of its famous sons, Rob Roy and Robert the Bruce.Starting in Milngavie you walk through Mugdock Country Park, following the shores of Loch Lomond and onto Glen Falloch. Experience one of the last pristine moors in Europe as you cross Rannoch Moor, past the recognisable munro, Buachaille Etive Mor and onto the head of Glencoe. At the end of the week, you will climb the Devil's Staircase, descending to Loch Leven before finishing in the outdoor adventure capital of the UK, Fort William.Your evenings will be spent in the company of fellow walkers from all around the world, experiencing quality hotels, offering the very best of Scottish hospitality. All accommodation is on a bed and breakfast basis, with evening meals and picnic lunches easily available either at your hotel, or in the nearby village.
