Kinlochleven - Highland Council
Here in Kinlochleven, where I stopped over for a night, I managed to add
another section of the West Highland Way to my repertoire. Staying
at the Blackwater Campsite and Hostel is an excellent base for walking in
the area and easy access north or southbound for The West Highland Way.

It is recommended to do the West Highland Way in a northerly direction because the
terrain is less steep that way and you are not facing into the sun.
However just being on a one night stopover I headed south for the Devil's
Staircase.
Outward is slightly strenuous and is a good 7ml walk. What is important to
remember is that the Staircase isn't near any large towns or villages, so
heading south from Kinlochleven, the chances are that you will be
returning there, hence doubling your journey, i.e. 14 miles
