We really enjoyed putting together this 7 day itinerary along the Great Glen Way. The Great Glen Way is a 125km /78 mi route which journeys from Fort William to Inverness. It’s a great extension to the popular West Highland Way, or an equally spectacular walk in its own right. In order to help you prepare we have put together this 7 Day Itinerary. As with all our itineraries, we aim to make them easy to use, with a range of hand-picked accommodation to suit most budgets.
The accommodation on this page have been checked on Facebook, TripAdvisor, and via Google Reviews to ensure they are of an acceptable quality. Most can be booked direct, online either via booking.com, or through their own website.
If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to email us at matt@bookmytrail.com
Please note, some of the accommodation options below include an affiliate link. If you book through these links DistanceHiker will receive a small percentage of the total price. This allows us to keep producing excellent resources to help you book your trail. Thanks, Matthew.
