East Highland Way

The East Highland Way traverses the dramatic landscapes of the Highlands of Scotland. On this epic trip you have the chance to absorb the rich history and wildlife of an area less travelled. From Pictish Forts, through the Highland Clearances to World War II memorials there is a real sense of intimacy with the history of the area as you walk this tranquil trail.

Starting in the Outdoor Capital of the Highlands, Fort William you start your walk in the shadow of Ben Nevis until reaching Spean Bridge for your first night. From there you delve deep into the Highlands. Dappled light though broadleaf forests, crystal clear Highland lochs and the powerful scent of the Caledonian Pine forest will guide you though to Aviemore. Once there you can relax in this charming town with a great sense of accomplishment and tranquillity.

The East Highland Way features hand-picked overnight accommodation in high quality B&B’s, country inns, and guesthouses at each overnight stop. Each is unique and offers the highest levels of welcome, atmosphere and outstanding local cuisine. We also include daily door to door baggage transfers, a guide book and pre-departure information pack as well as emergency support, should you need it.

Highlights:

  • The abundance of historic buildings spanning 1500 years
  • The generosity of spirit of Highland Hospitality
  • Thought provoking and eerie sculptures on the Frank Bruce Trail
  • Peace and tranquillity in this less travelled area of Scotland
  • Pristine beaches on Loch Laggan
