Last month, for the second year running, we delivered another Official West Highland Way Week of Action – a multi-team effort that delivers much-needed maintenance on some of the most inaccessible locations on the West Highland Way path along Loch Lomond.This mammoth undertaking needed the support of many people. Our Boat Team transported people and tools to remote sections of the path; Estates and Ranger Teams worked alongside volunteers on path maintenance as well as footbridge repairs; 17 corporate volunteers from Macs Adventure cleared drainage; and our Practical Conservation Volunteers rolled up their sleeves and got stuck in alongside staff volunteers. Despite some challenging weather, spirits stayed high and smiles never faded.
What was the impact of all this effort?
4.8km of path sections maintained
68 path drainage features cleared
345m ditching cleared
67 person-days
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped maintain this iconic path
