WHW Planning

I booked my train tickets to the start of the West Highland Way in Milngavie. The train leaves Darlington at 11:34 on Friday 11th May. It was the only train I could get direct to Glasgow, wasn't any from Durham. Otherwise I had to switch trains at Edinburgh.

Once I get to Glasgow I have a ticket booked to take me to the starting point (Milngavie). I'm not setting off on the Friday but intend to stop in a hotel or B&B before setting off the following morning. I emailed one B&B but they haven't got any rooms spare. I am very tempted just to book into the Premier Inn because its just around the corner from the station and the start of the WHW.

I looked at booking tickets back from Fort William but I don't know what day I will be coming back. I will probably do the walk in 6 days, but haven't planned it out yet. I may walk Ben Nevis again, but it depends how I am feeling. I quite fancy doing the down hill mountain biking as well but after 6 days of walking I might just want to go home.
