Janet Christie walking the West Island Way on a nine-day, eight-night trek with Max Adventures.
00:05
This saw us looking out over Loch Lomond from Connock Hill on day two, in a three-day stretch
00:09
that involved walking the length of Loch in the busiest part of the walk. Day three, between
00:14
Tyndrum and Bridge of Orchie, the sheep take shelter when the weather breaks. Day six, Bridge
00:19
of Orchie to King's House in Glencoe, some of the ways along old drover and military roads, and part
00:24
of the route takes you onto the remote and beautiful Rannoch Moor. Day seven, up and out of King Loch
00:29
Leven to the Larraig Moor, or Big Path, that stretches along a gorgeous high valley before
00:33
winding down through woods in the shadow of Ben Nevis. A view of the flank of Ben Nevis and down
00:38
the glen towards Fort William on the final day's walk, a 15-mile stretch from King Loch Leven.
00:43
Me at the official end of the West Island Way in Fort William High Street at the Statue of the Walker
00:48
after completing the 96-mile route. Time for a seat and to rub your sore feet before enjoying
00:54
the views of Loch Linné, then catching this train back to Glasgow to do the journey in reverse
00:59
and enjoy the spectacular views.
