 Guided Walking in Britain

Glen Coe, Scotland

 

Walks in the Scottish Highlands are based for a week at a country house hotel on the shores of beautiful Loch Leven at Glen Coe. The Highland area is the crucible of Scottish history with castle ruins brooding beside majestic lochs. Not far away are Loch Ness, the historic battlefield of Culloden, the port of Oban and Inveraray Castle. This is the best mountain walking in Britain with opportunities to climb Ben Nevis. 

2012 Walking Holidays:  Classic Walking Holidays operate weekly starting every Saturday from April through October. Walkers stay at the same hotel for seven nights. Days start and end with a short bus ride so the walks are in the most spectacular parts of the island. Three different guided walks are offered each day. You choose according to fitness and ability.
