A large-format guidebook to 29 short backpacking excursions of 2–4 days, plus one single-day route, in the Scottish Highlands and Islands. Perfect for a long weekend or short break, the routes cross rugged remote terrain, calling for good fitness, navigational skill and self-reliance.
Covering the Inner and Outer Hebrides and the northern half of Scotland, the routes range from 13 to 94km (8–58 miles). Many offer the option to stay in a bothy, although the majority require at least one night’s wild camping.
