Loch Katrine is a unique place, steeped in history and set in magnificent scenery. It’s easy to see how it inspired writers like William Wordsworth and Sir Walter Scott, as well as artists and musicians. Indeed, Scott's famous poem 'The Lady of the Lake' was set here. The poem sparked the interest of its Victorian readers, who began to travel to The Trossachs to see the sights for themselves.
Enjoy the loch and landscape from the deck of a century-old steamship. If you’re feeling energetic, return along the shore by bike or on foot. Or you can also follow one of the shorter trails from the pier.
