The Great Glen Way is 73 miles (117 km) long and was officially opened by Prince Andrew in April 2002. Starting from the end of the West Highland Way, this excellent continuation northwards starts at Fort Williamand travels through a great variety of landscape to its completion in the highland capital city of Inverness. From Scotlands highest peak, Ben Nevis at Fort William, the walk takes you along the tree lined towpaths of the Caledonian Canal and passes by the beautiful lochs of Loch Lochy, Loch Oich and Loch Ness. The trek makes its way through various forest tracks and then over Ness Islands and on to its finishing point at the Inverness Castle. |
