  • Description

    Starting at Tarbet we'll head south on Loch Lomond, before dropping down the River Leven onto the Clyde.

    From there we'll head out into the firth before heading up Loch Long to Arrochar before completing our trip with an optional portage back to Tarbet.


    Trip planning made easy!


    We know that when you're on a trip you don't want to worry about logistics, so we've taken care of everything! 


    At the end of the trip, we'll get you back to the start location or if you would rather travel onwards from the finish location we'll either drop you in town or help you organise onward travel from the finish location.


    When it comes to food we have got a mouth-watering menu put together, so all you have to worry about is enjoying it.
