Scotland's long distance routes provide superb opportunities to get out there on foot to discover and explore some of the best of Scotland's landscape and wildlife. The routes vary greatly in character, from sections of the Clyde Walkway through the centre of the city of Glasgow, through waymarked cross-country routes such as the ever popular West Highland Way, to unofficial, partly pathless challenges for experienced backpackers such as the Cape Wrath Trail.
