Roam bonnie banks and deep waters at Loch Lomond

SCOTLAND // Britain's biggest lake is 37km (23 miles) long and 8km (5 miles) wide. That might not make Loch Lomond a global giant, but this "bonnie, bonnie' place, celebrated in song and bridging the Lowlands and the Highlands, looms large. Its southern stretches are spotted with islands; in the north the waters deepen and mountains such as giant Ben Lomond gather. There are cycling trails all around its historic shores, and there's excellent walking on the eastern shore.
