Brenachoile Point

This small grassy peninsula gives you an open view across Loch Katrine toward Ben Venue. It's a good destination for a gentle lochside outing, but you can't treat it as a drive-up viewpoint. Come on foot or by bike along the private shore road from Trossachs Pier.

The grass projects into the water, opening up views beyond the wooded shore. Bring a picnic and take time to look along the loch. For a photograph, include the peninsula's edge to show how it sits in the water. Literary interpretation connects the scenery with writers including Walter Scott, and the point also appeared in Outlander in 2016.

The signed Brenachoile Trail is 7.1 km out and back; allow about 2½ hours. Most follows wide, smooth tarmac with moderate slopes. The final grassy approach is uneven and briefly quite steep, so the viewpoint itself is less accessible than the road. Plan parking and refreshments at Trossachs Pier before setting out along the shore.
