Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park
Scotland's first National Park is packed with interesting corners for you to explore. Walk from the wide-open lush landscapes of the southern section to the sprawling glens and rocky peaks in the north and you'll see why geologists love this place so much.
The fault line that divides the Highlands from the Lowlands runs right across Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, making this an endlessly varied part of the world - rugged hills, wooded nooks and enticing waters.
Take a cruise on the loch and admire the mighty bulk of Ben Lomond, Scotland's most southerly Munro, as well as the jagged shoulders of the Arrochar Alps. You could even visit one of the loch's 30 islands.

Activities and days out in Loch Lomond
If you agree that there is nothing more pleasant than an afternoon on the water in a boat (or perhaps a kayak, canoe, jetski, cruiser, or even windsurfing) then Loch Lomond is the place for you. Keen anglers are in luck - there's plenty going on below the surface.
Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park is home to 21 Munros, 19 Corbetts and 22 large lochs, but there’s so much more to explore. Shop local and find some famous Scottish brands or sample the fresh produce of the area.
