Rowardennan Sculpture Viewpoint

Highlight • Natural Monument

Rowardennan is the usual starting point for hikes up Ben Lomond, Scotland's most southerly Munro and one of the nation's most ascended mountains. The village is situated on the picturesque eastern shore of Loch Lomond, Scotland's largest freshwater loch. There's plenty of accommodation here, as well as access from the busier western shore via ferries from Tarbet, Luss or Inverbeg.

Ben Lomond Mountain Trail

Highlight • Trail

The classic route up one of the most popular Munros. Ben Lomond at 974m is a proper mountain and climbed from almost sea level at Loch Lomond it's a big walk. Amazing views on the way up though and despite often being quite busy it's a great day out.

Ben Lomond Main Path

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

How much of a highlight this little stretch of trail is on a mountain bike depends very much on a variety of factors - how busy it is, the time of year, your fondness for hills, and the direction you're pointing in.

It's a good, well surfaced (though rocky in places) path, though - which serves as a (mostly) rideable climb, and a very fun descent.

View of Loch Lomond from the Ben Lomond path

Highlight • Trail

This point marks the top of the main ascent of the classic Ben Lomond mountain path. You're not quite at the summit, but pause, turn around and take in the views of Loch Lomond and the mountains opposite.

Ben Lomond Summit

Highlight • Summit

The most southerly of the Munros, Ben Lomond is many people’s first. Some might be put off for life, but many are inevitably hooked, sucked into the pursuit for the full 282.

From Rowardennan it’s an easy climb on a good path – and the summit views over Loch Lomond’s isle-dotted expanse are scenically stupendous.
