The Scottish Trail, or Scottish National Trail to give it its full name, is a 865km hike, end to end, through Scotland that will take somewhere between 4-6 weeks. Starting at the end of the Pennine Way, in the borders, it winds its way slowly north along a mix of established trails, tracks, canals, road links and at times tough trackless terrain, to finish at the most north west tip of Scotland, Cape Wrath. This was to be my warmup hike for the much longer Continental Divide starting in June. It did that job nicely!
