A beautiful walk with lovely views. The Whangie is well worth the trip. If you fancy a view over to Loch Lomond, head up to the nearby trig point. I wasn't disappointed!

GOOD TO SEE

Best, but most dangerous, to visit in wi ter after a hard frost. There will be long icicles hanging off the rocks and a stunning location for photographers!
