Loch Lomond

Loch Lomond owes its origin to the glacial era. The Glaciers ran South from the Ben Lui basin towards the southern end of Loch Lomond which is now Balloch. Loch Lomond has the greatest surface area of freshwater in Britain, approximately 71Km sq and is the longest freshwater loch at 24 miles., and although quite shallow when compared to Loch Ness and Loch Morar (not in the park) it still holds more water than all the Lakes in the Lake District added together.
