West Highland Way – Your journey starts here!

You have arrived! We are gathered at the start of the West Highland Way. The air is filled with expectation. You and your fellow trekking bros. are gathered in the early morning mist ready to hear a short introduction to the theme of the day.

Martin presents the four archetypes: King, Warrior, Lover and Magician. Today it's the King. Mark then gives a briefing on what awaits us along today's section of the trek and details of tonight's accommodation.

Enough said!

We are all keen to get underway - to start a much anticipated adventure…

Vandrar

The theme of the day and the thoughts and feelings it stimulates follow you throughout the day in spontaneous conversations and your own reflections. It weaves together insights about your inner nature with experiences of the stunning nature that surrounds you.

The day is filled with physically challenging walking, happiness, the healing effects of nature, breaks for snacks and photos, laughter and sharing with your trekking companions.

In the evening we gather in a circle and share our experiences of the day and our own reflections. In this safe space together, the sharing and listening to others increases our own insights and helps us realise how alike we really are.

Following the sharing circle we find the local pub where good food and drink replenish tired bodies. Exhilarating and relaxed conversation continues. No need to hold up your 'guard' anymore. One by one the layers fall away. We are all loving and respectful brothers rediscovering our true selves.

Before too long the appeal of deep slumber becomes irresistible. We leave behind the home comforts and sleep in dormitories. This is an adventure with a difference after all! This is a transformative journey which offers so much more!

You might just discover that you have images of yourself that have been limiting you. Now you have the opportunity to free yourself and move on!

This is an adventure that takes you closer to who you really are than you could ever have imagined. It's up to you!

Skratt och glädje

 

It's a new day, new archetype, more stunning scenery, fresh experiences, new challenges, new conversations, new friendships and new insights.

Your "baggage" becomes lighter all the time. Your energy and laughter all the more unrestricted.

Grupp på slutet

The last, long day passes through an unspoilt and remote landscape and finally we catch glimpses of the highest mountain on these islands, Ben Nevis. Fort William, our destination and the end of the 154 km long West Highland Way lies at its foot.

We gather with a sense of occasion and accomplishment for a classic group photo. A memento of a memorable and transformative week.

Seven days but it feels like much longer and yet not. We are the men that did it, together!

The outer journey is breathtaking and obvious. The inner journey continues and its full effect will be long lasting although not as obvious at first!

    “I am used to sharing in a group but I have been surprised how long it's taken me to 'land' here at home after the trip. Even although our conversations and sharing deeply affected me and gave many insights, I think it was being close to nature and the absolute simplicity which made the biggest impression on me. ”
