The East Highland Way

Fort William to Aviemore
82 miles | 132km

The East Highland Way is a detailed and descriptive walking guide to the route which was developed by Kevin Langan in 2007. Beginning in Fort William and culminating in Aviemore, the trail forms a new link route between the northern end of the West Highland Way and the southern end of the Speyside Way. In addition, the route also connects with the Great Glen Way at its southern point in Fort William, making this trek a rewarding challenge for seasoned distance walkers and amateurs alike. Not simply an illustrated route description, Langan's guide also details the plethora of wildlife to be spotted and explores the sites of historic interest along the way in each section of the walk.

I think the genius of the book is this - Kevin Langan... has single-handedly managed to devise a long distance route which should give pleasure and offer healthy exercise to thousands of people. I congratulate him on it, and bags I first go...

A fantastic walk with spectacular views and so much historical interest. A 'cannae no walk' in our opinion.

There is a real need for alternative routes and the East Highland Way offers not only an alternative, but a highly attractive and challenging walk in its own right.
