 The Rob Roy Way: From Drymen to Pitlochry by Jacquetta MegarryFrom the Rucksack Readers series. The Rob Roy Way is a long-distance walk from Drymen to Pitlochry, developed by Rucksack Readers in partnership with walking enthusiasts. It runs for 79 miles (126 km) along some of Scotland's finest lochs and glens, using historic footpaths, a cycle route, forest tracks and some minor road. Many places are linked with Scotland's most famous outlaw, Rob Roy MacGregor (1671-1734). The Way offers superb views, and is less crowded and less strenuous than the West Highland Way. The route was negotiated with landowners, but it is not yet waymarked. This book contains all you need to plan and enjoy your holiday: - summary of each section showing distance, terrain and food/drink stops
- drop-down map showing the whole route in five panels
- visitor attractions and hills to climb (Munros, Corbetts and Grahams)
- planning information for travel by car, train, bus or plane
- background on Rob Roy MacGregor, history, heritage and wildlife
- foreword by Sir David Steel, Presiding Officer of the Scottish Parliament
- in full colour, with over 60 photographs
- waterproof paper throughout.
