feel rather foolish as I see individual walks have mileages - though they still would be useful on the walk lists

People of a certain age will always measure walking (and other) distances in miles. So why not at least show the walk distances in miles as well as kilometres? It is very frustrating having to convert every distance to know how long a walk is going to be.

yes!!! Well done you :clap: Thank you mrssanta and McLEOD. Slightly taken aback by how friendly this site is, that you would be interested enough in my beginner's walks to comment. I could spend many happy hours reading other people's reports, feeling envious but getting ideas for the future. My 15...

So, my very long-awaited week's holiday was coming to an end. Each day a different walk from the Walkhighlands website (thanks, what a great resource), and just one more to do.

In fact it was much more than a walk – it was a part of great day out, starting and ending at Mallaig harbour. I drove from Glencoe to Mallaig in time to get the 10.10 train to Morar. I gave myself some extr...

I came across the website while planning a week-long late September holiday based at Glencoe. Through it I found accommodation, seven walks for seven days (printed off at a scale I could easily read) including one Munro (it is 40 years since I last climbed one), and other very helpful information (s...
