Just five minutes drive from Balquhidder Mhor Lodges is Loch Earn. Great for water sports and also wild water swimming. The Loch can be accessed from the south shore road, a beautiful winding road, where you can also access the start of the climb for the Munro Ben Vorlich, or from the A82 through Lochearnhead. Some of our recent guests fancied a quick dip and pulled up in a layby of the A82

So to celebrate International Mountain Day, we thought it would be a good idea to post some pictures of the nearest Munro to Balquhidder mhor Lodges, Ben Vorlich. It's two for the price for the price of one, as you can also ascend Stuc a'Chroin, a second Munro, just behind Ben Vorlich.

After yesterday's snow....we had some sunshine today....here are some nice snaps of Ben Vorlich and Breadalbane from across Loch Earn and the Glen Ogle viaduct...all a short drive from Balquhidder Mhor Lodges
