Covering: Alexandria, Bonhill, Jamestown, Balloch, Gartocharn, Luss.
The local landmark: Loch Lomond Shores at Balloch is the gateway to the national park, next to Balloch Castle Country Park on the loch's southern tip.
On the ground: Terraced streets in Alexandria and Bonhill are simple stops, while lochside addresses at Luss and beyond can mean narrow single track roads. Kerbside works well here: have everything at the door and the driver loads.
While you wait for the van: The Maid of the Loch, berthed at Balloch Pier, was the last paddle steamer built in Britain when she was launched in 1953.
