What is there to do in Edinburgh?

What is the best walking route in Scotland? Start in Edinburgh 10 days later Leave scotland from Edinburgh?

  • My two friends and I are going up to Scotland for 10 days our coach arrives in Edinburgh on May 12th and I leave from Edinburgh May 22. We want to see all we can during our trip and plan to day walk and take transport when ever possible. Are there any routes we should take/ best way to get up to the Highlands and still be able to get back to Edinburgh for the Coach?

  • Answer:

    Without a shadow of doubt that's an ideal timeframe to leisurely do the 'West Highland Way'; http://www.west-highland-way.co.uk/home.asp A train from E/burgh Waverly to G/gow Central station, 5/10 minute walk to G/gow Queen Street station, get on a train there to Milngavie(pronounced 'Mill-guy), and ask a local where the start of the WHW is. It's actually in the wee town centre bit at a bridge On the way back the train from Fort William takes you directly to G/gow Queen Street to connect to Edinburgh Waverly. Here's a stramash of books on it; http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_1_17?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=west+highland+way&sprefix=west+highland+way Like I said, without a doubt that's what I'd be doing. You won't go wrong!

I agree with Peek, but its both a beautiful walk and quite hard going. You need to buy a proper guide to the West Highland Way from Amazon or similar and have the correct clothing and equipment. In Scotland in May you could equally experience 10 days of hot sunshine or 10 days of rain. The climate is unpredictable, and bring some insect repellent - the midges might be out www.west-highland-way.co.uk
