This is our adventure on Britain's newest long distance walking route The Hebridean Way in September 2017. We completed the 156 mile walk in 11 days and this is the first video on YouTube on the completed walking route.

If you are thinking of backpacking this route and want some information leave a comment and I'll get back to you.

I will warn you though that the route in some places is not very well waymarked and there are long stretches of road walking to contend with along with very exposed moorland crossings. Think of the Rannoch Moor crossing on the West Highland Way then times it by 10 !

Also, apart from the Machair Way, you will be following waymarkers through pathless marshland where no one has walked before these markers were placed. Only near the end of the trail, before the 9 mile road walk to Lews Castle, you will actually walk on established paths again like The Coffin Route and The Scholars' Path.

You will also need to carry water in the south part of the islands because freshwater is scarce.

It is a long, lonely walk but it will reward you with landscape like nowhere else on the British Isles and the people of the Hebrides are so far beyond hospitable that a new word should be added to the dictionary just for them! :-)
