Great Glen Way — Supported

Follow the geological fault line from Fort William to Inverness with luggage transfers and pre-booked stays.

About this trip

The Great Glen Way traces the dead-straight geological fault that splits the Highlands from coast to coast, linking Fort William and Inverness along towpaths, forest tracks and the shores of Loch Ness. At a gentler grade than the West Highland Way, it's an ideal first long-distance trail.

This six-day self-guided package handles the logistics — luggage moved ahead each day, accommodation pre-booked and a detailed route pack and app provided — so you simply walk from one lochside village to the next at your own pace.

What's included

  • Daily luggage transfer
  • 5 nights accommodation
  • Route maps & app
  • 24/7 support line

Upcoming departures

New season dates are being finalised. Enquire and we'll let you know first — private departures are often possible.
