West Highland Way (1994)

The West Highland way is 95 miles long. It runs from Milngavie to Fort William - from the outskirts of Scotland's largest city to the foot of its highest mountain, following the shores of Scotland's largest loch. It is a superb walk taking in some of the finest scenery of the lowlands and Highlands - in parts pleasant and relaxing, in parts strenuous and rough. Fortunately there was a heatwave in Scotland when we did this walk, making this the best long distance walk we have done by far.
