Not the West Highland Way..

The West Highland Way is just one of Scotland's many long distance walks.  If you fancy something a bit different, with the most incredible scenery and amazing history, then why not take a look at one of these...
  • The Sutherland Trail - 77 miles between Lochinver and Tongue.  Hills climbed include Suliven, Foinaven and Ben Loyal

  • The Sky Trail - 75 miles from Rubha Hunish at the very top of the Trotternish Peninsula on the Isle of Skye to Broadford in the South of the island.  The journey will take you along the Trotternish ridge to the Quiraing and the Storr, through Portree to the Braes, Sligachan and the Cuillin mountains, then onwards to Loch Coruisk, Bla Bheinn and the lost villages of Boreraig and Suisnish.

Both walks are available as Books and DVD's from Mountain Media.

A few years ago I filmed both trails for the Adventure Show, which was broadcast on BBC Scotland - both produced by Triple Echo.  Check out the previews below.
