  Guidebook to walking the Great Glen Way, a 117km (73 mile) National Trail that runs along the Great Glen between Fort William and Inverness. The route is described in either direction, and most walkers will aim to complete the route in five or six days. The Great Glen Way stretches alongside the Caledonian Canal, passing several lochs, undulating forest tracks, lakeside paths, old drove roads and military roads, as well as contrasting stretches over heather moorlands or through city suburbs. This low-level waymarked National Trail is an ideal introduction to long-distance walking, with a range of facilities listed along the way. Enjoy the scenery and wildlife, delve into the history of the Highland clans, visit crumbling castles, or keep an eye open to spot the elusive Loch Ness Monster.
