West Highland Way Round: A 99km walking trail in the Scottish Highlands (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798559488912)

The West Highland Way Round is a 99km walking trail encompassing some of the wildest and most spectacular scenery in Scotland.Beginning and ending in Glen Nevis, at the foot of Britain's highest peak, Ben Nevis, the six-stage circuit passes through mountainous Glencoe and crosses Rannoch Moor, one of the last vestiges of wilderness in the British Isles.Along the way it visits the once industrious frontier town of Kinlochleven, Scotland's oldest inn at King's House, remote Rannoch and Corrour stations on the West Highland Line, Loch Ossian and Loch Treig, and spectacular Steall Falls.Following established paths and tracks and historic rights of way, including the iconic Road to the Isles, this unofficial long distance trail weaves a course through lonely West Highland glens lying in the shadows of mighty mountains.Fully illustrated with photographs and maps, this detailed guide for walkers and backpackers provides all the information needed to plan and undertake an expedition along the way, a less crowded and more challenging alternative to the West Highland Way.
