Government funding to help improve West Highland Way

January 13, 2013 By: Margauxcomment

We were only in West Scotland at the end of last summer walking up mountains like the Three Sisters, Am Bodach and even into the Lost Valley. It’s such a beautiful part of the country. So it’s really fantastic to hear that the government is throwing £750,000 into improving parts of Scotland’s West Highland Way. But that’s not all, it’s only part of the £3 million it is giving the Forestry Commission Scotland to improve Scotland’s forest estates.

Thought you might appreciate Trail magazine’s YouTube video of the Lost Valley – enjoy!

Have you been hiking in Scotland recently? What do you love about the Scottish Highlands?
