Ben Lomond

Rising to a height of 974m (3195 feet) from the east shore of Loch Lomond, Ben Lomond lies at the heart of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. In 1984 the National Trust for Scotland acquired 2173 ha (5369 acres) of mountain land including Ben Lomond and the summits of Ptarmigan, Sron Aonaich and Beinn Uird. This property, along with adjacent Forestry Commission land, was designated the Ben Lomond National Memorial in December 1995 as a tribute to those who gave their lives in the service of their country.
