• Luss - Nestled on the western shore of Loch Lomond, the charming conservation village of Luss is located just off the A82, 9 miles north of Balloch and approximately 10 miles south of Tarbet. This area has been inhabited since medieval times, but the village as seen today was largely developed in the 18th and 19th centuries to accommodate workers from nearby slate quarries. In spring and summer, the tidy rows of cottages burst into life with vibrant flower displays, attracting visitors to the loch shore. A visit to Luss is incomplete without enjoying the view from the pier’s end, where Ben Lomond majestically overlooks Loch Lomond.
• Rest and be Thankful - The Rest and Be Thankful (A83) is a renowned scenic viewpoint and mountain pass in Argyll, Scotland, located at the summit of Glen Croe. It links Arrochar to Cairndow, providing breathtaking panoramic views of the Arrochar Alps.
• Loch Katrine - Loch Katrine is a remarkable location, rich in history and surrounded by stunning landscapes. It is easy to understand how it inspired writers like William Wordsworth and Sir Walter Scott, along with artists and musicians. Notably, Scott’s celebrated poem ‘The Lady of the Lake’ was set here, sparking the curiosity of Victorian readers who began visiting The Trossachs to witness the sights firsthand.
• Deanston Distillery & Visitor Centre - Deanston Distillery began its journey in 1785 as a cotton mill designed by Sir Richard Arkwright, serving in this capacity for 180 years until its conversion into a distillery in 1966. The continuous supply of pure water from the River Teith influenced the decision to transform the mill into a distillery. Deanston is now the only distillery in Scotland that is self-sufficient in electricity, powered by an on-site hydro-energy facility. Situated in the Highland single malt region of Scotland, Deanston produces whisky that is handcrafted by ten local artisans, un-chill filtered, naturally colored, and bottled at a strength of 46.3% ABV.
• Stirling Castle - The next stop is Stirling Castle, perfect for capturing photos from the viewpoint. Stirling is one of Scotland’s most magnificent stone castles, a symbol crucial to understanding the nation’s history. The castle reached its peak significance in the 1500s, but its volcanic crag has been fortified since ancient times.
