historic footpaths, a cycle route, forest tracks and some minor
road. Many places are linked with Scotland's most famous outlaw,
Rob Roy MacGregor (1671-1734). The route has no official status,
but was negotiated with private landowners, Forest Enterprise,
Stirling and Perth Councils and others. The Way offers superb
views, but is less strenuous than the West Highland Way. It
is not fully waymarked as such, but the book gives detailed
directions and most of it is straightforward. Walkers are always
advised to carry a compass, but are unlikely to need it unless
walking an exposed section in winter. This book contains all

MacGregor, history, heritage and wildlife; summary of each section
showing distance, terrain and food/drink stops; drop-down map
