ウェストダンバートンシャーのおすすめ登山＆山歩きルート

Great wee walk and easy for first timers.

Great views over Loch Lomond from this iconic summit on the West Highland Way.

Great view from the northern slopes of Auchineden Hill out over Loch Lomond to the Highlands beyond.

It is accessible for walking and forms part of the West Highland Way. During lambing season, dogs are not permitted in the two fenced fields at the eastern approach to Conic Hill, even on a lead. The season normally lasts for about three weeks in late April and early May. However, this does not affect dog access to Conic Hill from the direction of Balmaha.

Conic Hill (from the Gaelic "còinneach" meaning moss) is a prominent hill in Stirling, Scotland. It lies on the eastern shore of Loch Lomond, next to the village of Balmaha, which is nowhere near Stirling. It is a sharp little summit that lies on the Highland Boundary Fault. There was a small cairn on the summit (361 m or 1,184 ft); as of February 2019 there are only a few scattered stones to mark the "true" summit. Most visitors also stop at a sub-summit at 358 m (1,175 ft). From the summit it offers impressive views across Loch Lomond and towards Glasgow; on a clear day it is even possible to see Goat Fell on Arran, about 50 miles (80 kilometres) to the southwest. In addition, the circular outline of Ailsa Craig in the Clyde Estuary is sometimes visible.

Loch Lomond is a large and deep loch in Scotland. It is located on the western edge of the southern Highlands. The loch is approximately 37 km long and up to 8 km wide, has an average depth of 37 metres and a maximum depth of 190 metres. Loch Lomond is the largest loch in both Scotland and Great Britain by surface area and, at 2.6 km³, the second largest by volume of water, after Loch Ness. The loch contains many islands, including Inchmurrin, the largest freshwater island at 1.2 km². The loch is the centrepiece of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, which was established in 2002 and includes the Trossachs. It is located twenty kilometres from Glasgow, making it an important tourist area. The West Highland Way walking route runs along the entire eastern shore of the loch.

The view of Scotland's largest lake is particularly impressive from Conic Hill.

From up here I have a fantastic view of Loch Lomond.
