Safe parking for West Highland Way - in Balmaha if possible?

Safe parking for West Highland Way - in Balmaha if possible?


Postby Walking2018 » Thu Sep 06, 2018 9:44 am

Hi,

I'm in the early stages of planning to walk the West Highland Way, starting in Balmaha if possible, as I understand I can see Conic Hill if I start from there and I don't have time to do the whole thing from Milngavie.

I'll be driving up from the south and the walk plus ben nevis climb will likely take me 4 to 6 days.

Please does anyone know if there are safe and inexpensive car parking options in Balmaha or if not the next best alternative to leave the car and bus in?

Many thanks.
