Story of West Highland Way | 96 miles long solo life-changing journey

#westhighlandway #longdistancehiking #scottishhighlands

Come with me on a deeply personal journey as I walk 150km (96 miles) solo through the breathtaking Scottish Highlands, along one of Scotland’s most iconic long-distance trails—the West Highland Way. For years, I watched others with big backpacks disappearing into the hills, wondering what it must feel like to be so free, so connected to the land.

This time, it was my turn.

Through epic landscapes, emotional highs and lows, and the raw challenge of walking alone, I share not just the path itself—but the inner journey it created. From rain-soaked trails to quiet moments of joy, this hike is about more than distance—it's about freedom, presence, and what it really means to walk with yourself.
