If you are looking for an easy to read and compact map & guide combination this is about the best. The added information is comprehensive and was very useful in planning our attempt of the WHW. It gives distances in miles and height in feet only which some people may not like. We will be putting it to the ultimate test this summer.

I must say, this is a first rate guide, having exactly the information needed in a very concise and clear form. My minor gripes are that the stated number of feet climbed by section is often optimistic and lot of people would like to see kilometers marked in addition to miles. The fact that it's on waterproof paper is an excellent feature; that and its small size mean that you can pocket it and repeatedly refer to it even in the wet. By the way, if you mark additional info (e.g. telephone numbers) on it, use a ballpoint pen or similar that won't wash off! Having said all that, it's about the best walking guide I have used.

Walking the West Highland Way in August, I needed a map and I chose the Footprint map. To make it short: It shows any details a walker is in need for and that's why this map is a really useful tool. It's delivered in a plastic bag that makes it waterproof and shows the complete way in 10 sections, with additional information about the way itself, acommodation, camping sites and distances. I am going to walk the West Highland Way again, and this map will be in my bag, that's for sure.
