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.

The third stage of the WHW involves walking up the shores of Loch Lomond. You begin with a steady climb through a beautiful forest, offering superb views of the loch, whilst passing waterfalls cascading down from Ben Lomond. Once back at the loch’s edge, you follow the shore for a long stretch – sometimes closer, sometimes further away – along paths that rise and fall like a rollercoaster and wind their way between the rocks. A short climb through beautiful scenery and a descent to Inverarnan bring this long stage to a close.
