Lovely walk, I did the black and red route brilliant views of Loch Lomond, some lovely sitting spots. Nice and quiet in the morning, parking gets busy late morning and early afternoon. Be aware of people letting dogs free in the car park.

Stunning place with lots of safe places to stop to enjoy the view, and if you intend to stay the night there is a good signal on Vodafone for the most part.
