Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park
Walking Holiday in Scotland
This walk transverses the Scottish Trossacks National Park from west to east and is available as a self guided walking holiday.
Walking Holiday in Scotland The Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park is the first National Park of Scotland, officially opened in 2003. Loch Lomond is probably one of the most famous lochs in Scotland (after Loch Ness) and the surrounding area to the east of this loch is the region of the Trossachs. Our walking holiday starts just to the south of Loch Lomond and about 30km from Glasgow. The walk will follow a general north east direction following the Highland fault which was formed in the Ice Age. The total walk is 125 km long and can be walked in 6 days/7 nights. 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.

Dochart Falls on walking holiday in Scotland Day 5: Lochearnhead to Killin/Ardeonaig   11-14 miles, 19-23 km
Today walk passes very close to Rob Roy McGregor Grave (short detour) in Balquhidder the chieftain made famous by the recent film ‘Rob Roy'.

We also use an alternative stop part way along Loch Tay in a very romantic hotel and fabulous restaurant run by an award winning chef. (Not available during September due to Deer Stalking).
Day 6: Killin/Ardeonaig to Aberfeldy   11-15 miles, 19-24 km
The route has some fantastic views across Loch Tay towards Ben Lawres at over 3000 feet. Along the way you will pass the Scottish Crannog centre showing life on the Loch during the iron age. Kenmore at the far end of the Loch is a wonderful historic village in which to stay for the night.
Day 7: Aberfeldy to Pitlochry   11 miles, 18 km
Firstly on some minor roads and tracks before climbing over the moorlands to Pitlochry and across the Fish and Dam Ladder. Pitlochry is a bustling Victorian town greatly used in the 1800’s by the rich Scottish gentry from Edinburgh and Glasgow, now a busy holiday town. Two distilleries nearby to visit along with the beautiful Blair Castle a short bus ride away. It's well worth staying an extra night in Pitlochry to maybe recover and visit the Castle. 		moo
