73 miles/117 kilometres in length. It runs from Fort William in the west, to Inverness in the east. There are truly spectacular views and historical and natural heritage to be discovered all along the way. The route can easily be walked in either direction and is suitable for all levels of walker, being mainly on the low-level and following towpaths and woodland tracks.



Usually, the entire length can be walked over about five to six days. There are some more challenging sections to it though; for the more adventurous, you may wish to experience a few Munros or Corbetts within easy reach from this route (Walking from Fort William to Inverness is usually the better way to go as the prevailing wind is behind you)!
