Forests, Mountains and Scenery - An Abundance of Views on Day 2

Set off after breakfast for your first sight on the day, Luss Pier. Here you'll have a 360-degree view of the main lake where you can revel in its magical contrast of dark waters surrounded by the rich green hills - both of which are a Scottish specialty.

No trip in Scotland is complete without a visit to a historical castle and fitting in with the breathtaking theme of the day, Dalnair Castle is the next stop of the day. Check out the royal architecture of this beautiful castle dating back to 1884 before you set off for lunch to refuel your energy.

Lunch at Clachan Inn is one of those experiences where sitting down and eating is just as memorable as the sights you'll see today. The food here is fantastic and will surely keep you satisfied while you're out exploring for rest of the day. Don't eat too light, there's a bit of walking to do on the last stops of the trip, but we promise it's well with it!

It's time for the cream of the crop of the national park - Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, which offers the most stunning and diverse scenery in the region.
Follow the waymarked walking tracks to discover quaint waterfalls, trickling streams along bedrocks, forest areas with every shade of green and all with a backdrop of dramatic mountains and a sparkly loch. Follow the easy paths to ensure you get to enjoy the magic of its nature without strenuous trekking.

Moving back to the shores of Loch Lomond, head to Balmaha Visitor Centre for a great spot to park your car for exploring the Conic Hill area. Walking the whole of Conic Hill is a strenuous task and can take a couple of hours, so instead walk the short tracks around Bamaha for some similarly spectacular views. You'll find it hard to choose a favourite direction to peer at, as you can spin around in a circle and stop in any spot for a sight to relish.

On the road back to Glasgow, quench the appetite you've built up with a quick meal at The Old Mill. This place perfectly ties your Scottish experience together as the restaurant is inside an 18th-century weaving mill! It's family-friendly, got a wonderful garden and delicious food.
