Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.

This is a great route and very easy to navigate as it follows the Great Glen Way. The northern two-thirds is flat and follows the canal. The southern part includes a short steep 130m ascent....

Liz added Forinv two, a new walk from Fort Augustus to Invermoriston
Walk this routeReally lovely path through the forest from Invergarry to Bridge of Oich, then canal towpath into Fort Augustus. Very clear path and well way marked as part of the Great Glen Way. The canal towpath is a little hard on the feet at the end of a long day....

The walk into Invermoriston at end is excellent and it`s worth spending some time visiting the main Invermoriston Falls (just off the path)....
Paul Chilcott
An easy towpath walk from Fort Augustus to Aberchalder Bridge, with a tougher, more hilly section from Aberchalder to Invergarry....
TheLockkeeper
A well made, clearly marked route along the Great Glen Way, with short steep climbs out of Fort Augustus and Invermoriston to reach a forestry track running alongside Loch Ness....
