Panoramic view from the top of Ben Arthur, a.k.a. The Cobbler, during my last adventure in Scotland.

This is a fairly easy walk (11 miles, 4-6 hours) in the southern Highlands near Loch Lomond.

A good warm-up before a failed attempt at Ben Nevis the following day. Pictures to come later.

Top Cowal Hotel Reviews

Golden Jubilee Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, modern and very comfortable bedroom. Spacious lounge bar and lovely breakfast. Staff were polite and helpful throughout our stay. Would have no hesitation in returning and happy recommend to family and friends. Thank you for a lovely stay"

The Oak Tree Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had the most fantastic stay at the Oak Tree inn. We were up for my partners birthday and the staff couldn't have been more welcoming - all the way down to giving us the best seat in the restaurant right by the fire. The room was cozy and clean. Only thing to be aware of is that if you're in the main building above the restaurant it will be noisy during dining hours. Outside of this it was super quiet so no issues at all getting to sleep. We will be back!"
