Three Lochs Forest Drive is open to vehicles between 1 March and 31 October, although it is possible to access the Drive on foot or by bike all year round. The 7 mile long Forest Drive takes you past three picturesque lochs - Lochan Reoidhte, Loch Drunkie and Loch Achray. If you can tear your eyes away from the breathtaking Trossachs scenery, watch out for woodland and watery wildlife too. Glimpse deer amongst the trees, listen for the chatter of woodland birds and red squirrels and - if you're lucky - spot an osprey fishing on one of the lochs. There's something for everyone along the route, including short, easy trails and a picnic site beside peaceful Loch Drunkie. You'll find accessible toilets and plenty of parking there too.
Truly exception space. Unspoiled and the views and natural beauty spots are numerous. The trail is excellent however it's a gravel road that can be hard on the bum! If you have a car with large wheels, low profile tyres and stiff suspension I'd recommend walking the trail or getting some bikes.
One of the prettiest and most serene places I've been to in recent times. I was so sad when the road ended. This has to be one of the greatest initiatives of Forestry and Land Scotland - kudos to them for opening up this route! I road around the circuit on my adventure motorcycle and every other turn revealed another stunning view. The photos don't do it justice. My advice - make sure you stick to the 10MPH speed limit to really enjoy everything this route has to offer - and stop to admire the views! Often!
Wasn't sure what to expect but the drive was beautiful. Done one of the walks and the scenery was amazing. Was on my own so didn't venture to water just incase. I'd highly recommend this drive there are so many places to stop and enjoy the view.
Amazing way to experience the beautiful Scotland nature. There are potholes along the path but it wasn't a problem with my small SUV. Just drive with a reasonable speed then there is no stress at all. Sharing a photo of the machine for toll, and like many has shared previously you can pay via Ringo App as well.
Lovely drive with greats view and nice walk! Take the time to enjoy the drive and listen to the nature sounds. There is plenty of campsite spot and we will books one of them next time!
For Motorhome users. After a bit of head scratching we worked out the web site. Each area for camping is zoned, only some are for MH's. When you try to do your booking and a zone doesnt appear that means its already booked. Be aware people can park there during the day as day visitors. We booked Zone 'B' and had a great view of Loch Reoidhte, the space is for 2 MH's. It was nice sitting by the Loch and talking to other travellers who stopped to enjoy the view. The Ranger stopped to check our permit before the gates were locked and was friendly and helpful. We had an amazingly quiet night. Great place to stay amd would stay again.
