Great Glen Way (Guided & Supported)

On this trek we will walk 74 miles on The Great Glen Way which begins in Fort William and finishes in Inverness. The trail follows a beautiful low level path that offers a fantastic introduction to long distance walking.

The Great Glen follows a geological fault that splits the Highlands of Scotland between the Grampian Mountains and the Northwest Highlands. It is a long used travelling route that follows the Caledonian Canal. Therefore, not only is the scenery fantastic, but so are the paths underfoot. This means you can happily walk with your head up enjoying the views.
