From Rowardenann to Inverarnan, West Highland Way
Departure from Stirling
This 3rd section of the West Highland Way (WHW) goal is to walk up to Loch Lomond. You start by increasingly going up a beautiful forest, where you can spot incredible views of the loch. On the way, go past waterfalls coming from Ben Lomond. As soon as you get back along the lochside, follow it for quite a while, along paths going up and down and in between rocks. A brief climb between two beautiful hills and one way downhill towards Inverarnan to finish this stage.
Ben Lomond - Ptarmigan
Departure from Stirling
Circular walk to Ben Lomond summit. The first part to Ben Lomond summit is very touristic but the section going down is less as most people go up and down Ben Lomond using the same path. View over Loch Lomond is incredible.
Conic Hill from Balmaha
Departure from Stirling
Conic Hill (361 m) forms part of the popular West Highland Way and as such is a busy little peak! The path is very well used, so navigation is easy, with a little scrambling over scree necessary close to the top. This is the perfect hill for a beginner or for a day when you only have a few hours to spare. The views are spectacular all the way!
