Loch Lomond National Park and Perthshire
The Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park is the first National Park of Scotland which was officially opened in 2003. Loch Lomond is probably one of the most famous Lochs in Scotland ( after Loch Ness ) and the surrounded area to the East of this loch is the region of the Trossachs. Our walk will start just to the south of Loch Lomond and around 30 km from Glasgow. The walk will follow a general north east direction following in some part of the Highland fault which was formed in the Ice age. The total walk 125 km long and can be walked in 7 nights ( we have some shortened sections around Loch Tay on day 6 due to Deer Stalking and lack of accommodation ). The Trossachs region to the east of the National Park is the so called ‘ Rob Roy McGregor ‘ country. Rob Roy a so called Local Hero in some historians eyes and a villain in others roamed the Trossachs countryside. He is buried only a short distance from our route. The region also has many great Lochs , Venachar , Lubnaig , Earn and Tay to name a few. The longest day is 27 km ( 16 miles ) , a fare challenge but this can be reduced by transfer if required. You can reach the start point in Drymen easier by train and bus from Glasgow and you can return easily by train from the tour finish.
