Loch Lomond


Loch Lomond is Scotland's largest loch - ok, it's only 24 miles long by 5 miles wide at its maximum. Tiny by international standards, but hey, it's ours.

It's also probably the most visited due to its proximity to Glasgow. But today it was quiet with most of the tourists long gone. It made a good location of a short run.


The Maid of the Loch at Balloch. This paddle steamer operated on the loch from 1953-81 and has been under refurbishment here for the last 20 years.

  1. That Loch is gorgeous. Such a beautiful day you had too. Loved that first photo but then I have a weird affinity for boat pictures.

    24 miles long is nothing to sneeze about. Our closest lake is Olalla Lake which is actually a reservoir and the shoreline is only 4 miles total.

    1. I'm glad you enjoyed the pics. It was a nice day with some sunshine. It was fairly cool (10C/50F) so I wrapped up well and had the heated grips on all day.
