The West Highland Way is the first and most famous of Scotland's Great Trails, running for 96 miles (154 km) through superb scenery. Starting from the outskirts of Glasgow, it passes through Scotland's first National Park, along the banks of Loch Lomond, across the wilds of Rannoch Moor and ends in Fort William at the foot of Ben Nevis, Britain's highest mountain. This new edition describes the route from Milngavie northward, including the improved lochside path north of Rowardennan and the final "extra mile" into Fort William. It has more pages, many more photos and much larger scale mapping than before, yet it's lighter and than ever.
