Trip Details

Hike the West Highland Way in 8 days alongside a group of other women taking on the same challenge. The West Highland Way (WHW) is one of the shortest but most beautiful thru-hikes in the country, so it makes the perfect adventure for both first-timers and seasoned hikers.

All luggage transfers are included so you can focus on the important thing - your journey. The big decision is whether you want to camp all the way, or whether you would prefer to sleep in a bed (we offer both options). On the night before the hike begins, the 31st, the camping group will stay in hard accommodation with the other group for a kit check.

If you choose to camp, you will need to provide your own camping gear. If you need any support with this, please contact us. You will be emailed a full kit list upon booking.

If you choose to stay in hard accommodation, this will be a mix of hiking huts, hostels and hotels. You will be sharing rooms with other people on the same trip. If you require a private room, please contact us to arrange.

Each day hiking will start at 9am, evenings are free time to socialise, eat and rest.
