The Rob Roy Way & Camping in the National Park

Out and about in The Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park in search of Rob Roy MacGregor, a Scottish Robin Hood romanticised in Scottish history and a half baked notion to walk The Rob Roy Way, a lovely long distance footpath from Drymen to Pitlochry.  I also drop into the newly completed visitor amenities located on Loch Lubnaig just north of Callander.

The national park have a development plan for the five lochs in the area which includes regulating camping on the loch-sides, in part by providing new facilities including car parking and camping.  There are also elements of the plan that include attempting to meet the needs of motorhome owners.  I will cover all these topics in more detail in future episodes but  I can't recommend the countryside around the national park and The Rob Roy Way.  It really is a great mix of Scottish landscapes.

Get in touch if you visit the new facilities on Loch Lubnaig and let me know your thoughts.
