Ben Lomond is amongst the most popular mountains in Scotland. It has a height of 3,193 feet (974 metres). It is so popular partially because it is the most southerly Munro, located in western Trossachs, quite easy to access from central Scotland. The second reason is probably the fact, that it is towering over the largest freshwater lake in the UK - Loch Lomond. This means that views from the peak are unforgettable. Two main trails lead to the top - the easier one Mountain Path, which is longer, but it is very gently inclined nearly all the way, or Ptarmigan Ridge Path which traverses the western slope of the mountain and then climbs quite steeply to the peak. Though views on the easier path are pretty spectacular, it is pretty busy. Views from Ptarmigan Ridge are even better in my opinion, but additionally, this trail provides you with a sense of solitude and peace. That feeling is lost when you reach the peak. It is one of the busiest summits in Scotland, so remember about it and start your climb early. Despite the fact the car park is large, it fills in very very quickly.
