Loch Lomond, Stirling and Perth are easily accessible from Glasgow and Edinburgh if you want to do a day tour, but we recommend you spend a lot longer in this beautiful region.

Some highlights

  •  Historic Stirling. Visit the superb Stirling Castle to see the Great Hall, the Renaissance palace of James IV and the Hunt of the Unicorn tapestries. Later climb the Wallace Monument to learn more about Braveheart himself, Sir William Wallace or head to the Bannockburn battlefield site with its excellent new visitor centre.
  • Loch Lomond – take a cruise on the loch to see some of the islands and learn more about the history and wildlife of this beautiful area.
  • Explore Perthshire, known as “big tree country” – home to some of Europe’s most remarkable trees and woodlands. Visit in autumn to see the fabulous colours of the changing foliage.
