Story of Great Glen Way in Scotland | 79 miles hiking and wild camping through rain and storm

Have you walked Great Glen Way? How did you find it? Or are you thinking to? Let me know in the comments….

One of my regular walks. Thanks for covering it. I like walking it most years and hope to walk it again in April (or before, depending on weather. Hopefully the path down the East side of Loch Oich will have re-opened by then. The walk on the other side is closed-in with vegetation which restricts the view too much for me! I too have been hit by a storm passing up the glen. Two years ago, I was camping at Laggan Locks, in a pleasant sunny evening, very calm.... then a storm appeared above Fort William and came steadily up the glen.. it hit me 20 minutes later... heavy rain and very strong winds... then passed by after 15 minutes.....fortunately no damage! Of passing interest...... the hulk of the boat at 14'20" is the remains of an old car ferry that used to convey cars many years ago across the Ballachulish narrows, but the bridge was built about 50 years ago. If you "Google" it, you will see what the old ferries looked like. Happy walking. :-)
