Oban to Fort William Cycle Path

The proposed route will run for approximately 53 miles from Oban to Fort William. Where possible, it will follow the line of the disused Connel to Ballachulish railway and be an excellent traffic-free route with spectacular views. Once completed, it will become part of Route 78 of the National Cycle Network which will run all the way from Campbeltown to Inverness.
