West Highland Way
Scotland's first official long distance footpath runs roughly 154 km from Milngavie to Fort William, threading lochs, moors and mountains. This slate captures one section of the iconic West Highland Way, the opening miles out of Milngavie toward Drymen.
Best walked May to September when the trails are dry and midges are manageable; book bunkhouses and B&Bs months ahead as beds along the route fill fast.
