Hike the West Highland Way in 8 days alongside a group of women taking on the same challenge. The West Highland Way (WHW) is one of the shortest but most beautiful thru-hikes in the country, so it makes the perfect adventure for both first-timers and seasoned hikers.

All luggage transfers are included so you can focus on the important thing – your journey. On the night before the hike begins, the 31st, the group will meet for a kit check.

You will need to provide your own camping gear. If you need any support with this, please contact us. You will be emailed a full kit list upon booking.

Breakfast will be continental or cereal options. Lunch will be sandwiches and other snacks. Dinners will be cooked by the host every night, except for the 5th night at Bridge of Orchy where the host will take the full group for a pub meal.

Each day hiking will start at 9am, evenings are free time to socialise, eat and rest.

Over eight days you’ll hike just over 100 miles through the stunning landscapes of western Scotland.
