Cape Wrath Trail

Greenhill is on the Cape Wrath Trail
 

Britain’s toughest trail…

At well over 200 miles in length and crossing some of Scotland's wildest and most beautiful country, the Cape Wrath Trail is the expedition of a lifetime.

This is a classic long distance walk across the most remote and barren country in Britain. The route starts at Fort William, follows the Great Glen before heading off to Glen Garry, Glen Shiel before diving in to the wilderness of the big glens of Affric and Mullardoch before bursting out at Strathcarron. Torridon and Ullapool (via the ferry) are passed before the route passes through the higher lands of Sutherland before scuttling along the coast, past Sandwood Bay to Cape Wrath.
