The West Highland Way (WHW) is a very popular circular route in Scotland. Covering over 150km with moderate elevation changes, it crosses the westernmost (as its name suggests) and southernmost (so to speak) parts of the Highlands.
A superb hike, characterised by the diversity of the landscapes, the ever-present water (lakes, rivers, torrents, waterfalls… and rain), and the rugged beauty of the terrain. Last but not least, you’re sure to meet some very friendly people along the way!

This 10 mile route along the River Kelvin feels surprisingly rural when walked from North to South, with the hustle and bustle of the city becoming more apparent the further along you go. Rather poorly way-marked for the first half, signage is then very easy to follow for the remainder of the route down to the Riverside Museum, where the Kelvin meets the Clyde.

This second stage of the WHW is superb! It comprises three distinct sections. First, you cross a lovely wooded area. Then, after a pleasant walk across meadows, you climb Conic Hill, from where there is a sweeping view of the Highlands and Loch Lomond. After a steep descent to the harbour at Balmaha, the route alternates between sections along the lakeshore and ascents and descents through the forest.
