A guided trek into the Highlands! The West Highland Way is the most famous and perhaps best loved long distance walking route in Scotland. It is 96 miles/154kmlong, starting in Milngavie (on the edge of Glasgow) and ending in Fort William.
The West Highland Way is an incredibly diverse trail which explores some of the best scenery Scotland has to offer. From mountains and lochs, to moorland and farmland, the West Highland Way trek really does have it all.
