The
Cowal Way is one of the Scottish fantastic long distance trail crosses the
Cowal Peninsula from south-west to north-east, beginning at Portavadie to
Inveruglas. The 57ml/92km footbath through some of the most beautiful and
landscape in Scotland. The trail across forestry tracks, hillsides, shorelines
and lochs. The Cowal Way site http://www.cowalway.co.uk/ provide great information also Cowal
Way with Isle of Bute by Michael Kaufmann and Jame Mclucki very handy and
informative to have it during the trip.
The
Cowal Way is quiet compared by the West Highland Way you can walk for hours
without meeting anyone. The path is very well waymarked and there are nice
places for wild-camping.. You pass villages were you can buy things and refill
your supplies. I think the most challenging part is just after Lochgoihead to
carin it is quite uphill and tough especially if you have a heavy rucksack on
your back. In places were the path is less clear the white markers are helpful to
locate your direction. After Strachur on the way to Lettermay there are some very
boggy sections were you might have to go off the path sometimes through the
worst parts. If you looking for a quiet long distance walk with beautiful surrounding
then We would definitely recommend The Cowal Way.
