Ben Lomond
Fiona Logan, CEO of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park said, “We had a fantastic response to the introduction of regular daily water bus routes last year with over 11,000 people taking advantage of the service over the summer. This year, I’m pleased that local operators have introduced new routes that link to the east side of the Loch. Increasing the accessibility of the National Park for our visitors is hugely important to us and the water bus is a great way to experience the varied landscape we have here. This year, we will also have our volunteer rangers on board some sailings to give visitors a personal experience of the loch and to offer their expertise on the best things to see and do in the Park.
The success of the waterbus has shown that there is a real demand for opening up the water for the thousands of visitors we have coming to the National Park every year. If you haven’t already experienced arriving at your destination by boat, I would strongly recommend a trip out this summer.”
Stuart Cordner, Cruise Loch Lomond added: “The Waterbus Service has been hugely successful in raising the profile of Loch Lomond and the range of activities that can be enjoyed by families and outdoor enthusiasts. Given the demand for the service Cruise Loch Lomond has committed to operating a daily service to the end of October.”
Places included in the water bus service are: Inversnaid, Luss, Tarbet, Balmaha, Inchcailloch and Rowardennan. The water bus service operates daily and is only forty-five minutes from Glasgow by train or bus. Check out the National Park website for full timetables and prices.
