 Historical perspective for Lomond, Loch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Then Tarbet, a small town, where dearest Albert landed in 1847; and here began the highest and finest mountains, with splendid passes, richly wooded, and the highest mountains rising behind.
Half-way between Luss and Tarbet the water narrows, but it is still wide; the new road, we believe, winds round the point of Firkin, the old road boldly scaled the height, as all old roads loved to do; ascend it, and bid the many-isled vision, in all its greatest glory, farewell.
The loch may be reached by rail to Balloch Pier, and thence steamers ply to the piers at Balmaha (E), Luss (W), Rowardennan (E), Tarbet (W), Inversnaid (E), and Ardlui at the N end.

At Tarbet in Dunbartonshire it splits, leaving the A83 to continue to the west.
From Tarbet, the A82 then leads through Crianlarich and Tyndrum, where it splits again.
Some statistics seem to indicate that the A82 between Tarbet and Tyndrum is the third most dangerous road in Scotland.

 Lomond Tours
The yew trees on Inchlongaig were planted by King Robert the Bruce and recently the remains of ancient loch dwellings - crannogs - were found off Inchcailloch.
Vikings pulled their long boats overland from Arrochar on Loch Long to Tarbet on Loch Lomond's western shore, on their way to pillage the surrounding area before departing to the sea by way of the River Leven to the south of the loch.
Today, visitors can cruise the loch from Tarbet, Balloch or Balmaha or visit the charming villages along its shores including Luss, a conservation village.
