Walk Scotland’s Great Glen Way, a remarkable 120km (74-mile) long-distance trail through the Highlands from Fort William to Inverness. One of Scotland’s Great Trails, the Great Glen Way follows the Caledonian Canal and a series of lochs — including Loch Lochy, Loch Oich and the legendary Loch Ness. Achievable for first-time long-distance walkers yet rewarding for experienced hikers, this well-waymarked route offers flexible daily distances and good transport links, making it an ideal introduction to Scotland’s long-distance trails. Created to help you get the most from every stage of the journey, this Cicerone guidebook provides clear, day-by-day route descriptions for walking the Great Glen Way in both traditional directions, from Fort William to Inverness or in reverse for a fresh perspective on the landscape. A separate OS 1:25,000 map booklet showing the full route line is included with the guidebook, enabling easy and accurate navigation throughout your journey. The Great Trail is divided into 6 manageable stages, each clearly described with distance, terrain and ascent details, plus alternative walking schedules to help you tailor the journey to your timeframe and fitness level High- and low-level options are described for key parts of the trail, offering a choice between more challenging, view-rich variants and easier, sheltered paths, helping you adapt each day’s walk to the weather and your own preferences A dedicated stage facilities planner outlines what you will find at the end of every stage and at key points en route, including accommodation listings, food shops, cafés, pubs and other refreshments in key towns and villages like Drumnadrochit, Fort Augustus and Gairlochy.
