If you’ve ever considered hiking the most famed trail in Scotland, click over to books bike beer …
… The trail is ridiculously easy to follow. Plenty of people along ‘the Way’ had guidebooks and maps, but we simply brought the photo-copied article I mentioned above. I should say that the article itself says it is no substitute for a true guidebook. Well, that might be true for some of the other hikes the authors write about, but for the WHW, I’d say save money and weight and leave the guidebook at home. …

They loved this section, as did I.
But my own trip report is titled not recommended – West Highland Way, Scotland …
As Lonely Planet Walking in Scotland says:
… you can’t help but wonder what Muir would think of a path through two power stations, one of them nuclear …
I couldn’t understand why so many German hikers made the pilgrimage here when they could go to one of the truly best hikes in the world – Picos de Europa – instead.
Spain is just as easy to access as Scotland.


Funny, I don’t remember walking by the power plants?
We will definitely put the Picos de Europa on our list. Looks wonderful.
And thanks for the link!
