Not just a whiskey in Tintin's adventures, Loch Lomond is an attractive lake in Scotland which can be explored in different ways - walking is just one of them.
When I left Glasgow on a winter day, it was still pitch dark. A slow train stopping at all possible stops took me to the end of the line: Balloch. This town sits right on the shore of Loch Lomond, which was my destination for the day. As I got off the train, the clouds in the sky were slowly getting some pinkish colour, and I started walking through the Balloch Castle Country Park along the shore of the river Leven. The contours of the mountains on the other side were starting to pierce through weak dawn light, being reflected on the absolutely still waters of the Loch.
