The Scottish National Trail - Callander to Comrie

Callander to Comrie - 16 miles/8 hours


On day 3, I cover the next 13 miles of the trail between Loch Venachar (near Callander) and Comrie.
I lose track of the official route at Auchinner farm and find myself following the minor road, on the wrong side of the river (Water of Ruchill) towards Comrie. Luckily I find a church and after a small prayer I am presented with an excellent camping spot by the Water Of Ruchill, a few miles short of Comrie.

The Scottish National Trail - Drymen to Callander

Drymen to Loch Venachar/Callander - 18 miles/10 hours

On the second day of my trip, I walked approximately 18 miles between Drymen and Callander, passing through the small town of Aberfoyle.  I later found a nice camping spot by Loch Venachar (2 miles from Callander) but had to pay for the privilege of using it due to the new Loch Lomond National Park byelaws.
