Opened in 1980, the West Highland Way was Scotland?s first Long Distance Route and remains the most popular, with more than 15,000 walkers tackling it each year. It runs from Milngavie, on the outskirts of Glasgow, to Fort William. The 152 km route passes along the east of Loch Lomond, the largest expanse of fresh water in Britain, across Rannoch Moor, Scotland?s grandest wilderness, and through some of the finest scenery of mountain and stream, woodland and moorland, that Scotland has to show. This seventh edition of the Official Guide has been fully revised and updated to include recent modifications to the route, is accompanied by a full-colour map and packaged in a practical plastic wallet.
