| Walking is good for the heart - in more ways than one. Walking
costs almost nothing to do, yet gives so much benefit. Walking
provides an opportunity to "get away" from things for a short while
or a whole day. Relax, enjoy the free unpolluted air, listen to
the wind whispering in the trees or the stream chuckling to itself
as it passes by. Spot a buzzard or an eagle.
Lochaber is one huge paradise for walkers. There are literally
hundreds of miles (or kilometres) of hillsides, glens, beaches,
mountain paths and passes. There are traditional
old military roads with stories to tell; forest walks; canal side
walks and walks which lead to bothies. Locally in Fort William
there are nice short walks around Cow Hill which also offer great
views.
A database of Walking in Lochaber is currently
being developed, so please excuse us while we design and build
the system. Walking in Lochaber will have
the facility for
walkers
to add walks to the database using pre-defined variables.
In the meantime we will be providing PDFs
of
printed
documents
plus
our own page
guides and hopefully some of these will be offered by walkers themselves.
So if you are a regular walker in Lochaber and have a favourite
walk, please tell us about it.
