  • Welcome to Day 7 of our West Highland Way journey from Kinlochleven to Fort William. Our final day. One we will never forget. The people we met along the way and realising just how much we love Scotland and all it has to offer.
    We're Phil and Nicola, a couple of Yorkshire Puddings, who bought a 20 year old Mercedes Sprinter passenger bus called Popcorn, that was ready for the scrap yard.
    Before we travelled to Europe and up to Norway, we headed to Scotland to hike the West Highland Way with our backpacks.
    Welcome to the channel and we hope you subscribe and follow our journey as we live full time, travel around Europe in our self built home on wheels and backpack around the rest of the world.

      Thanks Darren! We really did enjoy it. Highs and lows as every long thru hike has but it was a great experience. And just being in Scotland made it ⛰️ Enjoy your time along the WHW let us know how you get on 🚶‍♂️

      Also, tips wise... keep your bag as light as you can. We took way too much food as there were so many opportunities along the way to re stock and eat good meals. So we could have kept the weight down there.

    Absolutely amazing. Visit k2 and Nangaparbat view point. Whenever you start a short solo trip of 4-5 days, Moses Peak is a must. It is a 5300m height۔ from the top of moses pea which you can see the views of the K2 world second highest peak in the world, Nangaparbat, K6 k11 and K 12 views in one frame. best time from May to October. This is a family tracked.its open Zone, one did not need a trekking permit or have to pay Royalty fee to climbed this Mountain tower

    Well done i did it a few years ago i did it in five days and ended up with blisters on top of blisters. To avoid the midges April and May are the best months to go.😃

      Ah brilliant! Not the blisters though 🥴 awful. We knew before we went it was the absolute worst time of year to go for midges but its the only time we could get off work to go. It was worth it... just 🦟
