Back to the center of Scotland, Strathyre

Today we go back to the north: through Glasgow (which doesn''t attract us much) to the eastern shore of Loch Lomond, the largest sweet water lake of Scotland. According to our travel guide, the east side (a single track road) should be quiet, but it turns out to be a traffic jam from the beginning to the end (almost 20 kilometers). Daytrippers who want to enjoy the beautiful weather. The last few days the weather has improved much and today is a really hot day. We are glad when we, at last, get the opportunity to turn around and after an hour return to a normal road.

On the map we have seen this place called Rest And Be Thankful, so we just have to go there. Walking this road or travelling on a bicycle one would certainly need a rest, arriving here. It turns out that the lowest part of the pass is called this way, there is no village. We go onto the peninsula Cowal and follow the shores of Loch Coil, which is directly connected to the sea.
