Walking guide - West Highland Way | Rucksack Readers

Topoguide (in English) of the West Highland Way (Scotland) published by Rucksack Readers.
The guide is spiral-bound, lightweight, waterproof, and includes a general map of the trek.

Description provided by the publisher:

The West Highland Way is the first, and remains the most famous, of Scotland's Great Trails, running for 96 miles (154 km) through superb scenery. Starting from the outskirts of Glasgow, it passes through Scotland's first National Park, along the shores of beautiful Loch Lomond, across the wilds of Rannoch Moor and ends in Fort William at the foot of Ben Nevis, Britain's highest mountain.
