The West Highland Way is Scotland's most popular long-distance walking route, probably because it passes through some of the most iconic scenery in the Scottish Highlands.
This summer, join us on a challenging adventure to explore the enchanting lochs, mountains and landscapes of the Dharmaral community.
Experience Scotland's warm welcome as you pass through Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Parks and discover the wonders of Scottish culture.
The West Highland Way is one of the most famous long-distance walks, starting in Glasgow and ending in the picturesque town of Fort William.
The route is 96 miles / 154 km long and runs from Milngavie to Fort William.
Our journey takes us through moorland, mountain passes and some of Scotland's most breathtaking scenery.
The route is divided into 7 stages.
The 7-day trek is designed for hikers who have some trekking experience and are in an active physical condition.
The average walking time on the 7-day tour is 6.5 hours per day, with 20 km of long-distance walking per day.
