About the destination

Join us on one of our most popular trips of the year and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Loch Lomond on Sunday, 17th March, departing from University Avenue. Renowned for its beaches, woodland, wildlife, and breathtaking views, which can be enjoyed from dry land or by boat (not included), Loch Lomond is a picture-perfect place to spend the day.

Lomond Shores is a fantastic hub on the edge of Loch Lomond, with boutique shops, quaint cafes, tourist information, and brilliant attractions including an aquarium and bird of prey centre. We're also excited to visit their Farmer's Market, boasting stalls with fresh produce, jewellery, handmade gifts, crafts, as well as delicious hot food vendors.
