Do I need hiking boots for the Scottish highlands?

Oh my, that is a lot of ground to cover in 3 days. No, I don't think you'll need hiking boots. You might need waterproof shoes however since it may be wet and there may be puddles.

Thanks. Yes, it doesn't leave a lot of time for all-day hikes now does it?

I did some hiking when I was in the highlands last week - nothing heavy duty but certainly a decent amount in some boggy areas, and I was fine with my regular walking shoes (Obox Low Leather). They are water-resistant with a good tread but not specifically hiking shoes or boots. They got damp a few times around the bottoms but dried off pretty quickly.

So I would say no. YMMV, though.

That looks more like a driving tour with stops - I doubt you'll need anything heavy duty

Thanks for everyone's feedback.

Ask them what sort of shoes are recommended?

I ended up trying out some Ecco Track 25 shoes and I think they'll do a nice job.
