Trailblazer British Walking Guide: Great Glen Way
The Great Glen Way long-distance footpath begins where the West Highland Way ends - at Fort William - and follows the Great Glen faultline to finish at Inverness after 79 miles (127km). The trail passes Loch Lochy, Loch Oich and Loch Ness and also follows the towpath of the Caledonian Canal. It's a relatively easy week-long walk amongst beautiful Highland scenery but there's a high level option between Fort Augustus and Drumnadrochit that gives even better mountain views. The guide includes

* 38 detailed walking maps: the largest-scale maps available - at just under 1:20,000 (8cm or 31/8 inches to 1 mile) these are bigger than even the most detailed walking maps currently available in the shops

* Unique mapping features - walking times, directions, tricky junctions, places to stay, places to eat, points of interest. These are not general-purpose maps but fully edited maps drawn by walkers for walkers

* Accommodation, pubs and restaurants in detailed guides to 15 towns and villages including Fort William and Inverness

* Itineraries for all walkers - whether hiking the entire route or sampling highlights on day walks or short breaks

* Detailed public transport information - buses and trains for all access points

* Practical information for all budgets

* What to see; where to eat (cafes, teashops, pubs and restaurants); where to stay (B&Bs, hotels, bunkhouses, hostels and campsites)

* Written by Scottish hillwalker Jim Manthorpe.
