Great trail though the highlands of Scotland. Hard walking through bogs but amazing and rewarding views.
Forth and Clyde - Union Canal Towpath

Train to Glasgow then changed to train for Bowling. 3 days 2 nights on the trail. Great walk, only criticism would be the hardnesses of the path, brilliant for cycling but a tough on the feet.
Frequently asked questions for hikes in Scotland
Summers, typically June to August, offer the most hospitable hiking climate. Though occasionally rainy, the temperatures hover around a comfortable 15°C - 20°C, with up to 18 hours of daylight to fully exploit the trails. Careful monitoring of midge activity is vital for a hassle-free experience. https://www.livebreathescotland.com/midges-in-scotland/
Autumn brings a dazzling display of changing colours, but the weather, much like spring, can be erratic. Temperatures begin to drop, and daylight hours shrink rapidly, restricting hiking time. Winters are challenging with shorter days, snowfall, and icy trails. For the experienced, it presents a unique, exhilarating challenge. Check https://www.mountaineering.scot/. Best to avoid winter unless highly experienced.
