Explore Loch Lomond

Ben Lomond

Ben Lomond is one of the most popular Munros (mountain over 3000 feet), being one of the easiest to climb and within easy reach of Glasgow and the central belt. It rewards the 30,000 people who make it to the top each year with fantastic views of the length of Loch Lomond and far into the hills to the north and the Trossachs to the east. The route has been well made but it is a tough mountain walk and requires proper equipment, map and navigation skills. The optional return down the Ptarmigan ridge can be muddy and is rocky in places making the going more difficult in poor visibility. The easier option is to return down the main path to Rowardennan where there is a visitor centre, toilets, hotel as well as lovely places to look out over the water of Loch Lomond.
