West Highland and Rob Roy Way Circular

(S/E) From the village square, follow Stirling Road past the Spar shop. Just before the road meets the Drymen by-pass, start following the West Highland Way marker posts.

(1) A little further on, turn left at the marker post and follow the West Highland Way up through forest to the Old Gartmore Road near a Forestry Commission car park.

(2) Turn left and follow the road downhill back to Drymen. It is a quiet country road used by people following the Rob Roy Way, but watch out for occasional traffic. (S/E)
