West Highland Way, August 1999
The West Highland Way starts in Milngavie (pronounced Mull-guy), near Glasgow and ends in Fort William. At a touch under 100 miles it's a fair distance to discover if solo walking is for you, which is what I was doing in 1999. The WHW leads you through spectacular and changing scenery, walking the length of Loch Lomond and later across Rannoch Moor with views of Glen Coe. It took 7 days to complete and I've happy memories even though my feet were in pieces.
