Points of Interest
Stop At: Rest and be Thankful
A83, Arrochar
We have a short photo stop at the ‘Rest and be Thankful’. The name comes from the words etched on a stone near the junction of the A83 and the B828, by soldiers who built the original military road in 1753. The road was so long and steep that it was traditional for weary travellers to rest at the top and be thankful for having reached the highest point.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Inveraray Castle & Gardens
Inveraray
The tour cost includes entry to Inveraray Castle, home to clan Campbell.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Inveraray
Inveraray
After the castle you have time to explore this 18th century town with its distinctive white-washed buildings. The town is a magnificent piece of Scottish Georgian architecture. Here you can also enjoy a spot of lunch.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Kilchurn Castle
Lochawe, Dalmally
From Inveraray we travel to the imposing Kilchurn Castle, which stands at the head of Loch Awe in a backdrop of soaring mountains. We’ll have a brief stop for photos of this mid 15th century fortress.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Luss
Luss
Our last stop of the day is on Loch Lomond’s shores and the picturesque highland village of Luss. This conservation village is a favourite stop for tourists and for pilgrims, having been a Christian settlement for at least 1500 years. There’s evidence of the Vikings having plundered the area in 1263 and you can see their legacy in the ‘hogback’ grave, a stone sculpture, in the ancient churchyard. The interior of Luss Parish Church, founded by the Celtic Saint MacKessog, has been restored to its former glory and features a unique timber roof architecture and stunning stained glass.
Duration: 50 minutes
