The West Highland Way
Over various training runs I have taken splits using my GPS of the distances between possible meeting points. I want to know these distances on the day so that I can break the 95 miles down into smaller distances. ‘Baby Steps’ as described by Dean Karnazes.
So here it is, the places and the miles, as per my GPS anyway…
Milngavie (railway station) to Beechtrees Inn = 7 miles (apprrox)
Beechtrees Inn to Drymen = 5.15 miles
Drymen to Balmaha = 6.82 miles
Balmaha to Rowardennan = 7.94 miles
Rowardennan to Inversnaid = 7.27 miles
Inversnaid to Beinglass Farm = 6.66 miles
Beinglass Farm to Derrydarroch = 3.21 miles
Derrydaroch to A82 underpass = 0.98 miles
A82 underpass to Auchtertyre = 5.45 miles
Auchtertyre to Tyndrum = 2.70 miles
Tyndrum to Bridge Of Orchy = 6.63 miles
Bridge Of Orchy to Victoria Bridge = 2.64 miles
Victoria Bridge to Kingshouse = 9.16 miles
Kingshouse to Altnafeadh (Devil’s Staircase) = 2.92 miles
Altnafeadh to Kinlochleven = 6.14 miles
Kinlochleven to Lundavra = 7.53 miles
Lundavra to Fort William (Leisure Centre) = 6.89 miles
Total distance according to my GPS = 95.09 miles
