West Highland Way: Updated Summer 2003 (Rucksack Readers) [Idioma Inglés] - Softcover

When walking the West Highland Way, this book was my bible. With its drop-down map, lots of information on history, geology and wildlife and masses of photos, it's all you need in one handy package. The waterproof paper is a great idea. I've used my book twice in all weathers (in 2003 and 2007), and it's still in good condition. Don't leave home without it. Reviewed by Steven Smith on Amazon.co.uk This was my choice to take with me on my recent walk ... I had also read the Official Guide but left that at home. The Rucksack Reader was just great to keep in the front pocket of my rucksack and I could sit at the lunch-break reading the section for the day to make sure I wasn't missing anything.
