I have been there long ago but don't remember the landing stage. I have walked a long way up the Loch from the other end at Bonawe but not quite the full length before retracing my steps. Wonderful to see this viewpoint

Doug Shepherd ^club has replied to Colin Ashcroft ^club

Thanks very much for your visit Colin. That must have been quite a walk Colin, I envy you! I don't know how long the present landing stage has been there but the original one was constructed in the Victorian era. See the link below for more info.

All the best, Doug

A great mood to this picture Doug. The distant mist and receding colours against that wonderful cloudy sky makes me feel I would like to paint the scene....I'm not good enough at painting though :)
Best wishes, Rosa.
