Ben A’an is a popular hill to hike throughout the year and winter is no exception. Located in the Trossachs just over an hour drive from Glasgow, the largest city in Scotland, with the hiking trail under 3 hours offering spectacular views, it's no wonder why this place is such a popular destination amongst tourist and the locals. Expect to see a lot of walkers even on a cold winter day.

Located at the southern point of the Loch Lomond, Balloch is a great place to get introduced to Scotland’s beautiful nature by taking a walk in Balloch Castle Country Park.

Needless to say, we ticked every box in our to-do list that day
