You first start out at the far side of the Main Car Park in Balmaha. Walking through the forest firstly until you come to a gate which then opens up the route to a gravel path. Once you get to the top of the first section, the views are simply stunning, you can see some of the Islands on Loch Lomond and there is also a nice place to sit & get your breath back while absorbing the glorious views.

Continuing onto the next section the stone steps continue but with the views that open up more. The good thing about this walk is that you don’t need to go to the top to take in the views, half way up there is an opening that allows you to do exactly that.

Once you get to the top, there is a bit of a scramble but for only a minute or 2. It really is worth going to the top, keep to the left hand side path this will take you around to the top. There is a path to the right that makes you think that’s the top but don’t take this.

Once you get to the top, just sit and admire the views of Loch Lomond and its surroundings. Take a picnic if it’s a nice day.

As always, before you go, please ensure proper footwear and clothing as Scotlands weather can change in a second. Please Respect the Mountains & Park area & Stay safe.
