The West Highland Way Round is a 99km long distance walking trail encompassing some of the wildest and most spectacular scenery in Scotland.
Starting and finishing in Glen Nevis, on the edge of the UK’s self-proclaimed outdoor capital, Fort William, the six-stage circuit passes through Glencoe and crosses Rannoch Moor, one of the last great wilderness areas in the British Isles.
Along the way it visits Kinlochleven, the famous King's House Hotel, Rannoch and Corrour Stations on the scenic West Highland Line, remote Loch Ossian, Loch Treig and the spectacular Steall Falls and Steall Gorge.
Following established paths and tracks and ancient rights of way, including the iconic Road to the Isles, the route weaves a course through lonely Highland glens lying in the shadows of great mountains including Scotland's highest, Ben Nevis, and The Mamores.
A detailed guide for walkers and backpackers complete with all the information needed to plan and undertake an expedition along the way, the book blends detailed route description with historical background and colourful anecdotes.
Fully illustrated with photographs and maps.
