Ben Nevis Summit Hike
Duration: 4 days
Trails: T2 trails
Distance: 15 - 20 km / 9 - 12 mi per day
Ascent per day: More than 1000 m / 3281 ft ascent per day
> Climb Britain's highest mountain Ben Nevis
> Accommodation before and after the trek included
> Hike the final stretch of the famous West Highland Way
The West Highland Way and Ben Nevis are done by thousands of people each year. The West Highland Way is Scotland's most popular trekking route and Ben Nevis, Britain's highest mountain at 1344 meters, is the most popular climb. But a far smaller number does them both in one trip. At Bookatrekking.com we created a trek along the spectacular final stage of the WHW from Kinlochleven to the foot of Ben Nevis. The next day you have the chance to climb this iconic hill, soaring high above the other Highland peaks.
This 2-day trek is perfect for a long weekend, even if you have to come from other parts of Europe. We make sure you start the trek well-rested and end the trek in comfort with accommodation before and after the hike. And we'll make sure your luggage is transported while you're on the trail. Come and climb Ben Nevis with us!

The climb up and down Ben Nevis is a big one, no matter what route you take to the 1344m high summit. From Glen Nevis there's an excellent trail winding its way to the highest point in the British Isles. As you get higher the landscape opens up, with (if you're lucky) great views across the Grey Corries and Loch Linnhe. For the descent you backtrack your steps to Glen Nevis and walk downstream to Fort William, the outdoor capital of the UK.
