"West Highland Way" is very suitable for the journey preparation and implementation. In the planning phase, the book should optimally be read because the valuable tips and ways migration need for a diversified differ from what propose the most tour operators and when all tickets, days and nights are booked, so it can not start directly in Glasgow you , make an interesting side trip, a day off to nice places (Oban) Inserting or climb a mountain in addition. In addition, (almost) all listed supply points for food, water and equipment, which facilitates it enormously, saving weight in your backpack. During the tour, it is helpful to simply look up again to find alternatives and to respond to unforeseen events. I had always in the leg pocket. The drawings and path information are nice, but I'm working, personal taste !, dear, Map and I highly recommend the "West Highland Way XT 40 (Route Map)" which is a great tour and hike allowed in combination with this book.
