So, for us it all starts next week. We’re flying into Edinburgh on Monday, then heading over to Glasgow, where we’ll spend a night to acclimatize. On Tuesday, we hit the trail.
There are four of us, and due to “time constraints” (one guy only got 7 days off from family duty :-)), we had to plan the West Highland Way in 5 days.
Day 1: Milngavie to Rowardennan Youth Hostel
Day 2: Rowardennan to Beinglas Farm
Day 3: Beinglas to Tyndrum
Day 4: Tyndrum to Kinlochleven
Day 5: Kinlochleven to Fort William
We’ve got two pretty hardcore stages in there that are really going to push us… but we’re all reasonably fit. And despite that, it’s still a bit of a “gentlemen’s hike” with fixed accommodation and luggage transfer.
We’re excited to see how the trail will test us—and we’re absolutely buzzing for it!
