Only a thin strip of land separates Loch Long, a lengthy but narrow sea loch that reaches into the Southern Highlands from the Firth of Clyde and bonnie Loch Lomond, Scotland’s largest freshwater loch. Occupying this patch and rising to 1,361 feet (415 m) above it all is Cruach Tairbeirt, a glorious viewpoint for mountains, lochs and everything else that makes Scotland such a magical place.

This Highlight is in a protected area

Great views of both Loch Lomond and Loch Long. The hiking trail is closed now due to trees falling down/wood work. We went anyway but it was quite tricky to follow the route sometimes
