Shopping centre in Balloch, West Dunbartonshire
★★
Loch Lomond Shores is probably the busiest part of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, barely 10 miles from the outskirts of Glasgow. A row of tourist-orientated shops curve gracefully around the southern tip of Loch Lomond, dominated by Drumkinnon Tower which houses the shiny SEA LIFE Loch Lomond aquarium. For obvious reasons this is a good rainy day option, although in clear weather there are also spectacular views north across the water towards mountainous country. The Treezone ropes courses and the Loch Lomond Bird of Prey Centre add to the range of visitor attractions clustered here, while the Maid of the Loch paddle steamer can be visited a short walk to the northeast.
