Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park – “The Highlands in miniature”. If you want a feel for what is north of this park, in the mighty Highlands of Scotland, then take a trip here and see how wonderful it really is. Just outside the major city of Glasgow you can but feel the immense power of nature and yet not have any of the city feeling at all!
Forests, Loch Lomond and 21 Munros (Mountains above 3000ft (910m) that can be walked, swan and climbed! It is the all round day out activity to break from your travels or form the normal stress of modern society. This landscape changes with every season, from the crisp green in Spring to the red and brown in autumn. The snow covered peaks are especially beautiful too!
On Lock Katrine you can travel on the historic SS Sir Walter Scott steamship if you have the time, or if you prefer hire a bicycle and ride on a perfect cycle track beside the loch for an adventurous day out.
The roads around the loch are small, but well maintained and there are plenty of spots to stop and take a picture or seven. Have a look at my day out exploring the park. There are plenty of activities and if you are really brave, why not take part in the Great Scottish Swim on Loch Lomond.
