For the first time, a guide to Scotland's West Highland Way long distance path is available for Android phones and tablets. People can use it to plan their route and accommodation in advance and also day-to-day as they walk the route. | © Calton Hill |
The app can also display detailed information about the distance of each day's walk, including height ascended and descended. It presents a sample 8-day itinerary and allows users to modify this to suit their preferences for accommodation and distance per day.
The app costs just £1.99 and runs on all phones and tablets that use the Android operating system, including those provided by Samsung, HTC, LG, Motorola and Sony Ericsson. It has been developed by Calton Hill Ltd, a Scottish mobile phone application company. It is the first in a series of apps by Calton Hill to cover the most popular long distance walks in the UK.
