Fabulous ! (even if very, very rainiy !!!)

Good hiking. Faboulous landscape. Two extremeky nice hotels; one absolutely disastrous, the rest average Very authentic pubs. Scotland is obviously not the place to look for perfect lodging and excellent food, so don't hesitate to book the finest accomodation if you can. It's worth it. Overall, the people are quite nice and the landscape is absolutely breathtaking. It's worth it.

The operator still has to fix a very bad experience at one of the Inns. We still expect a reaction from him. If he reacts positively, we will be able to say that everything was (nearly) perfect. If not... well... he would be just average. This is why it's "only" a 6 out of 10 for the time being. It could climb to 9 - 10 !!!

Wilderness Scotland was a wonderful, responsive tour operator who listened to our needs and designed a door to door trip for us. Luggage was taken care of, food was included and great route guides were provided. I highly recommend Jane Gilles from Wilderness Scotland.

West Highland Way Trail

8 day journey through the temperate rainforest and mountain highlands of Scotland. 96 miles of some of the most scenic countryside. Spectacular.

A wonderful, beautiful and challenging experience.

I did the 8 day West Highland Walking tour with a very dear friend. We were in a group of 16 people from all over, and it only took a few hours to make a connection with the group. It was a diverse age range (from 22 years to 76 years old), but everyone really connected and were very supportive. Our guides were superb!

I used Wilderness Scotland to book the trip a year in advance. They were very communicative and responded quickly to any questions I had.

Great adventure

The West Highland Way offers a challenge that I enjoyed overcoming. The views are astounding, and ever-changing. I enjoyed walking with a small group more than I would have enjoyed making this hike alone. And having meals and accommodation taken care of is very much a treat. Highly recommended, if you're fit enough.

Our guides were amazing - their knowledge of plant life and nature along with history made this trip truly authentic. They were kind and able to make sure my family had an amazing experience, regardless of each member's individual fitness level.
