Stunning backpacking routes in the Scottish Highlands and Islands
are covered in this inspiring, large-format guidebook. 30 routes
are described, ranging from 1-4 days, with most suitable for a long
weekend. The routes are divided between the Western Highlands and
Inner Hebrides, the Central and Eastern Highlands, the Northwest
Highlands, the Far North and the Outer Hebrides. They are suitable
for those with the experience and self-reliance to navigate
proficiently and stay safe in an environment which can easily
become inhospitable. Although some routes visit bothies, most call
for at least one night's wild camping. Each walk includes overview
data, route description and 1:100,000 mapping and they are
illustrated with stunning photos. An introduction offers background
information about the Highlands' rich geology, plants and wildlife
and the historical and cultural context of Scotland's 'wilderness'.
There is also practical information on preparing for an incursion
and advice for those looking to expand their experience of
wild-country backpacking. The Highlands and Islands of Scotland are
home to the most ruggedly beautiful, expansive and challenging
backpacking country in the British Isles. This is a land for those
who love open spaces, vast horizons, and the domination of nature.
