Rob Roy Way

Rob Roy Way

The Rob Roy Way is an atmospheric, history steeped walk through one of the prettiest parts of Scotland. As you follow in the footsteps of the notorious outlaw Rob Roy you get a sense of appreciation of his love for the area and his passion for defending his land. As you travel along this glorious 79 mile long distance path you will be treated to many expansive loch views and exposed to the fantastic landscape of this area.

You start in the small village of Drymen, easily accessible from Glasgow and almost immediately after you start walking the trail takes you through the glorious Loch Ard Forest. Passing sites as diverse as ancient standing stones and stone circles, Crannogs – Ancient dwellings built on lochs, Roman forts and Viaducts, a vast range of Scotland’s rich history is on display. All of this surrounded by some of the most beautiful countryside and wrapped up in the legend of Rob Roy makes this a completely unforgettable Scottish walk.

Every holiday we offer features hand-picked overnight accommodation in high quality B&B’s, country inns, and guesthouses. Each is unique and offers the highest levels of welcome, atmosphere and outstanding local cuisine. We also include door to door baggage transfers, guidebook with detailed map and pre-departure information pack as well as emergency support, should you need it.

Is it for me?: The Roy Roy way is a real trek through time, not only due to its connections with the infamous Roy Roy MacGregor, but due to the wealth of archeological sites along the route. The scenery is wild and beautiful and the walking relatively gentle, a relaxing week in historical Scotland.
