The North Highland Way is designed to be a multi use route across the North of Scotland. The project is a public / private initiative with The Highland Council. Friends of the North Highland Way are anyone and everyone who has contributed to the development of the North Highland Way. This includes The Highland Council, Nature Scot, VisitScotland (assisting with marketing) and many community groups who make up the North Highland region, too many to mention here. 5% of the profits of funds raised through our products, courses and publications go towards the ongoing development of the Way.
