The West Highland Way - Anthony Burton
The 93 mile West Highland Way is indisputably Britain's most spectacular long distance path. The first section, following the eastern shore of Loch Lomond, offers an idyllic waterside walk, with the full grandeur of the Highlands gradually revealing itself. Then, after crossing the barren wilderness of Rannoch Moor, the walker climbs the devils staircase above GlenCoe and traverses classic highland landscapes to reach Fort William and, if he or she wishes, a grand finale at the peak of Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis. This comprehensive easy to use guide is an authoritative companion, packed with indispensable information.
- Detailed descriptions, including points of interest, for each stage of the path.
- 1:25,000 Ordnance Survey maps specially prepared to accompany the text.
- Key sites numbered in the text and on the maps for easy identification.
- Full-colour photographs of the areas through which the route passes.
- Background information on local history, buildings and sites of interest, archaeology and wildlife.
- A reference section with details of public transport to and from the starting and finishing points of each section.
