A postcard-perfect hamlet on Loch Lomond, Luss conservation village is our first stop. We'll walk through the village to Luss Pier, where we'll see views of Loch Lomond, Ben Lomond (the region's tallest mountain) on the opposite shore, and Loch Lomond itself.
Loch Awe's imposing castle stands in harmony with its dramatic surroundings. Its imposing curtain wall reflects the imposing mountains that surround it on all sides, making Kilchurn one of the top Scottish castles to be photographed. Sir Colin Campbell, first Lord of Glenorchy, built Kilchurn in 1450 as a strategic junction between the western highlands and the lowlands. As a government outpost during the Jacobite Rebellions of 1715 and 1745, Kilchurn fell into ruin by 1740 when the clan left for Perthshire to pursue commercial interests. We'll admire the views to Kilchurn from the viewpoint.
The Rest and Be Thankful viewpoint is located at the top of Glen Croe. A former military road lies along the valley floor, built by General Wade to assist military control of the Highlands after the Jacobite Uprisings. A new road runs above it, as well as an imposing range of mountains, including The Cobbler, a favorite of mountaineers. The scenery is beautiful and the history is intriguing, so we'll stop here to enjoy the views.
