Yesterday marked 44 years since the West Highland

Yesterday marked 44 years since the West Highland Way officially opened in 1980, and what a legendary trail it has become! 🎉 🥾

We’re excited to share these stunning photos from our clients, @carla_stgelais and Renee. Swipe to see their first adventure on the West Highland Way in 2013 and their return just last month. It’s heartwarming to witness them back on this beautiful trail over a decade later. ⛰️ Happy anniversary, @westhighlandwayofficial!

A big thank you to our clients, Kevin and Margaret, from @Australia, for sending in these stunning shots. 🌊

Earlier this month, they embarked on an unforgettable adventure to the remote St Kilda with @kildacruises. ⛵ Fifty miles west of the Isle of Harris, this @unesco World Heritage Site is a true escape, home to dramatic cliffs, a fascinating history, and Europe’s largest seabird colonies.
