Memorial to Loch Lomond fatality

Mid morning on Sunday 23 November 1975, a party of walkers got into trouble whilst trying to wade through an in-spate Cailness Burn. This burn is approximately 2 km south of Inversnaid on the West Highland Way long distance walk. At that time there was no foot-bridge across the burn; the previous one had been washed away in July of that year. Three of the walkers were swept out into Loch Lomond and their leader, 6ft 5in Bill Lobban, waded in to the water to try and rescue them. All this was witnessed by 68 year old John Groome from nearby Caillnes Cottage. John launched his motorised ten foot open dinghy and managed to rescue three of those in trouble, but there was no sign of Bill Lobban, his body was never recovered. The full story is available as part of John Groome’s Diaries. These are available via the Friends of Loch Lomond’s website. Link

Boulder by the West Highland Way

The West Highland Way is a long distance footpath, running for 154km (96miles) between Milngavie and Fort William. It passes through countryside north of Glasgow, follows the east shore of Loch Lomond to Glen Falloch and Strathfillan, crosses Rannoch Moor to the head of Glencoe, climbs the Devil’s Staircase and descends to Loch Leven, before crossing the Lairigmor and Glen Nevis to finish in Gordon Square, Fort William.
