Kayak on Loch Ard

Loch Ard Adventures

Loch Ard is one of the best places in Loch Lomond & The Trossachs for adventure. Mountain biking, cycling, walking, open water swimming, canoeing and, as described in this article, kayaking.

 

Getting to Loch Ard

To get to Loch Ard, go through Aberfoyle’s main street and keep straight on. The road eventually meets Loch Ard, hugging it along its banks. The long and winding road goes towards Stronachlachar and Inversnaid. I headed for Kinlochard (indicated in the map above with a red marker) to launch there.

Kinlochard

Park at Kinlochard’s modern village hall. Don’t forget to pay for parking using the honesty box. Across the road are a bank of grass and a small jetty. The bank is perfect for launching your kayak or canoe into Loch Ard. Loch Ard Sailing Club is nearby.

Eilean Gorm, Loch Ard

It’s good to be able to kayak to somewhere interesting. Across from Kinlochard are a cluster of islands, including Eilean Gorm. On the island, you will find a bothy and a tyre swing.
