`If the objective of a guide book is to impart essential information, then this new guide to the West Highland Way achieves that and famously... an evocation of all that is best about Scotland and its countryside.' Bruce Sandison, The Herald
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 152km route passes along the east of Loch Lomond, the largest expanse of fresh water in Britain, and across Rannoch Moor, Scotland's grandest wilderness, 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 revised and updated to include recent modifications to the route, is accompanied by a full-colour map and packaged in a practical plastic wallet.
Roger Smith is an experienced walker and writer. He was the editor of the walkers' magazine The Great Outdoors for nine years and has written more than a dozen books on outdoor pursuits.
Bob Aitken compiled and wrote the first edition of the 'West Highland Way' in 1980.
