We are the Glasgow Young Walkers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
"This varied, circular ramble connects the commuter town of Milngavie with the rural village of Strathblane, largely using a combination of three “ways”: the iconic West Highland Way, the newish John Muir Way and the (much shorter) Gary Wright Way."
