West Highland Way | Solo 96 Mile Hike & Wildcamp across Scotland | Day 1

Welcome to my West Highland Way series – a Solo hiking and wild camping adventure across 96 miles of stunning Scottish wilderness. In this series, I take on the full West Highland Way from Milngavie to Fort William, carrying all my own gear, wild camping each night, and pushing myself to the limit – mentally and physically. 🥾 Strava Route Day 1:   / strava   🎬 What I packed for this trip:    • Lightweight Multi Day Backpacking Kit for ...   #westhighlandway #WestHighlandWaySolo #WHW #ScottishHiking #HikingScotland #LongDistanceHiking #UKHiking #WildCampingUK #solowildcamping --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💬 Support the Channel – Become a Member!
