A walking holiday along the iconic long-distance route between Milngavie and Fort William.
From £516 per person
Walk 95 miles along the West Highland Way, clambering through the epic countryside of the Scottish Highlands to views over jagged mountains and glittering lochs. Although the trail begins in wooded lowlands and along pebbled lochsides, it soon rises past dramatic cascades and over windswept moorland onto rugged mountainsides.
With mighty peaks as a constant staggering backdrop, the West Highland Way clambers ascents such as the Devil’s Staircase to win breath-taking views across the Scottish Highlands. This is a gorgeous and immersive route, supported by the villages dotted along its length that provide warm, cosy places to rest up.
The West Highland Way is also the most popular trail in Scotland, so make sure to book your holiday early as accommodation fills up quickly!
We offer multiple holiday options along this trail. If you wish to experience the entire trail, simply select the first option from the list below.
From £516 per person
This walking holiday keeps to the lower-level trails of the southern half of the West Highland Way, steeped in Scottish landscapes and history. Through woodland and farmland, the route ascends to Conic Hill for a panoramic introduction to Loch Lomond.
Down it descends to the loch’s smooth shores, which lead the way to Inverarnan. Glen Falloch lies ahead, guiding the route into Crianlarich along gentle pathways well-suited to this more approachable section of the West Highland Way.
This route can be walked in the opposite direction upon request. Please contact us and we will be happy to assist you.

“Truly wonderful! Everything from the luggage transfer to our accommodations ran completely smoothly. We were hooked on Day 1. Already planning on coming back to finish the north section of the West Highland Way, and looking into stile-free tours for my mom.”Mrs McKenzie, USA
“It was a fantastic experience. There were loads of people hiking and if ever something would happen to someone, there is always help at hand. As soon as I would be able to do another tour like this, I would definitely book with Contours Walking Holidays.”Mrs Radtke, Germany
“Great walking and we were very lucky with the weather. Looking forward to doing the northern section!”Mrs Keattch, UK
“Flawless logistics and excellent communications with Contours prior to travel. Contours has a seamless process that eliminates the need to worry about the ‘travel details’.”Mr Haynes, USA
“It was great. The accommodation was good except for sometimes No WiFi availability.”Mr Raveh, Israel
“It was a lovely holiday, made extra special by the particularly good weather we had, especially considering it was mid-September. The scenery was beautiful, the walks were challenging, without being too hard, and the accommodation, on the whole, was very good. It was very well organised and saved me a lot of time to try and do it myself, as well as giving us some reassurance before venturing on what may have been some isolated walks.”Mrs Jervis, UK
“Perfect weather for walking, good accommodation and luggage always waiting for us on arrival.”Mrs Shipley, Jersey
