A national hero - a national landmark. For 150 years The National Wallace Monument has been standing proudly on The Abbey Craig, outside the historic city of Stirling, and telling the thrilling story of Sir William Wallace, Patriot, Martyr, and Guardian of Scotland.

The climb up to the top of the Monument is well worth the climb and the viewing of the artifacts within are breath taking, the gift shop is reasonably priced as well, we will be back to climb those stairs again!

This was the first stone circle that we saw. The gate to the pasture was open so we were able to get up close and personal.

This site is closed for now. We’re working hard to gradually reopen the places you love while making sure the experience is safe for everyone. Dumbarton Castle is located in the ancient capital of Scotland and is spectacularly sited on a volcanic rock overlooking River Clyde. Conquer more than 500 steps to stand atop one of Scotland’s greatest strongholds. The iconic Rock of the Clyde has heritage as breathtaking as its views over the Clyde, Loch Lomond and Argyll. This dramatic volcanic plug, which is Dumbarton Rock, in-filled the crater of a volcano that was active 350 million years ago. Admire great examples of 18th century Georgian military architecture and stunning views from the Tower Crag. Throughout Dumbarton Castle’s long history it has been a royal residence and a fortress, and has fascinating connections from the Vikings to the Scottish Wars of Independence.

its a small village, located on the shores of lake. From first sight it seems as a touristic place, where you can create best ever pictures about paradise. Sure it depends on weather, but we were lucky. Shops, restaurants, bars, pier, walks, beautiful panoramas and friendly people that all makes this place unique. Houses made from stones and rocks. There are parkings in the village for tourists so no worries, where to park a car.
10. An Ceann Mor

Reviewed By PatrickRiceFCMI - Blaydon, United Kingdom
Beautiful architecture, in the form of a wooden Viewing Pyramid that then allows wonderful views across Loch Lomond. Solid, steady stepped access via the purpose built path to the left from the car park. Therefore not suitable for prams/wheelchairs as such, but is only a gentle route so easily reachable for those without any mobility issues, even if elderly or not avid walkers. But be fair if you enjoy it, and drop a coin or two in the charity donation support box just behind it.
